Some landscaping is in. The facade fixes are not done yet. The outlet in the front is not moved though they removed the shutter that overlapped it. The roof still needs it's mock-tiles over the foyer window.

The regions of fresh dark dirt are where the sprinkler system was buried. They apparently like putting the systems close to the house and along the property line.

This is one of the big problems. The outlet in the lower center of this picture is now exposed, since the shutter has been removed. That outlet needs to be here but must be moved left one-brick width.

This tester was in the family room. This must have been part of the process of labelling the circuit breaker boxes.

These two switches are in between the kitchen and family room on the back (cinder block) wall. The unit on the left is level.

Still the sill is ill for the joints having not been filled with caulk.

The desk drawer is leaning. This is a matter of reassembly the drawer correctly I think.

These two images show the level sitting on top of the Corian surface of the kitchen desk. Note that the desk top is very level.

The passthru does not have the same sills as the windows. Nancy doesn't think this is a problem.

We finally have a slider in the bedroom. Formerly this was open to the elements.
