Crawling the walls

This past week we got some scaffolding delivered and then set up -- a job in itself.  The first use for it is so that Sebastian could scratch coat (seal with a cement and sand mixture) the parts of the house that I hope we will be siding in metal in the coming weeks.   

THen we'll use it to place that very metal,  and when some of the other trim details are finished,  it will go back to the scaffold rental place. 

I've been working on finishing various windows while he's been up there.   

The coming week will be a full one,  with  visits from electrician and excavator in preparation for bringing power to the house,  as well as getting various work done so that slabs can be poured at the front and back door.  We'll see what we have to show for it next week. 

In the meantime,  spring has sprung so that Barley and I can take our post workday walk in dappled sunshine now,  rather than by moonlight.    This is the ridge walk,  just above the house:
