Regular readers may recall the sheetrock was hung week before last. They spent the week finishing the sheetrock and completed it yesterday. So, much accomplished although, from a blog picture perspective, not much to show.
We did visit a stone yard and discovered our first choice is Tennessee Medium Fieldstone. Stone work is both complex and a little primitive, when you really think about it. I was surprised at how little a ton of stone can cover. For our application, a ton of stone is normally used every 40 to 45 square feet. So, before it is all said and done, we could easily end up using 40 to 50 tons of stone. That's a lot of stone.
This week will be a big week. Trim and interior doors are to be delivered tomorrow; the trim man is to start on Tuesday, the loader will return on Tuesday to do some more grading and I am to meet with the mason on Tuesday as well. The garage doors were apparently shipped to Mars and have now been promised to be delivered and installed on Friday. Hopefully by week's end we will be able to lock the house.
