Chuck wets down the brown coat.

It's spring in the dessert! This little cactus is about 5 inches tall with a huge bloom.

The brown coat in on the garage and guesthouse. In a week or so the final stucco coat will go on.

The house walls and framing are complete; Digger just finished trenching for the electric lines.

Stained floors in the guesthouse. What a job that was! But, we are thrilled with the results! They're a lovely amber color.
