2018 02 14 Paint, Electric, Gabion  walls, Underneath, Cleaning .. 

Mostly the same as yesterday, except the tile crew is not working, waiting for more cleaning.  It's amazing how much dust and sawdust is on everything.

Gabion walls continue, electricians continue to put up fixtures.  The house is on "normal" NVE power meter now, so quite a few outlets are powered.

Bath 1 being painted.  (I could have squared this shot up better with a tripod.)


Tile, bath 2:


Two shots of the ground source heat pump "stuff".  


The GSHP circulation leaves the house in the corner, right above the foudation.  The copper tubing is not completely connecter yet.  The 12 "wells" for the GSHP were just about the first thing done on site.  (They are each 300 feet deep.  In a less rocky situation they could be laid out horizontally, in trenches.)


Inside car court.  Front door is to the right, at the end of the trellis.


I never get tired of this shot, seeing the mountains and sky reflected in the windows.  The siding has been rusting for about 8 months now.


Light fixtures in garage!  There will be some cabinetry under those hanging lights.


Very elegant temporary front door with closer.


Clean glass in bedroom!


From one of the rock piles close to driveway.  This pile of rock will go into the remaining gabion walls.


Exterior light fixtures go in.


Electrical from NVE and solar come together here and go into house.


Gabion wall at far end of trellis.  Last row of baskets.
