We’ve reached another milestone in construction. The roof is complete and the base coat of the stucco is on the building. Pictures tell the story.

This shot shows the observatory from a distance looking east. The metal seamed roof looks very nice. As light a color as could be acceptable under home owners’ association rules. The “Ultra-Cool” roof is supposed to reflect heat. I hope it does. Clicking on the picture will bring you to the gallery.

This view looks to the south. The color of the beam matches the roof; the doors will match as well. the missing door on the right side of the image is due to an accident in high wind that damaged the door. It slammed back and bent in the middle. It will be great to see the stucco color coat next week.

Finally, this shot shows the detail of the roof, soffit, and stucco. It is all fitting together very well. We still have all the weather stripping to do, and that’s going to be a challenge. But it’s really looking good so far.

We are getting really close now. I’ve got to start thinking about the desk setup in the warm room, the red rope lights, and network connectivity. Now the work begins!
