Our Beige House

At first glance, it appears that we have a big beige house that is the same color as the neighbor's, however, this is just the first siding step, which will remain unpainted. We're showing the house from this angle as these are the only 2 sides of the house that are done at this point. However, we expect the siding to be completed in the next few days.

The other exciting news is that the electrical work has started in the interior of the house at the same time. A number of outlets and switches have been installed along with the structured, and speaker wiring that we put in the master, loft and living areas. You can see in the picture to the right that there are a number of wires that terminate at the circuit box that are not yet hooked up. It does look a bit messy right now though...

Inside the house, there are some canned lights that have been recently installed. its neat to see where the lighting will be placed along with the location of some of the speakers take shape. In the picture to the left you can see the zig-zag patterns of the wires in the wall which are actually the speaker wires. Presumably they are installed this way so that they have sufficient slack so they can be fed through the drywall after it is installed later. We have our official "walk-through" on Monday morning, so we'll be excited to see the rest of the interior work be completed including the HVAC system (which has been partially installed) before the drywall goes in.

Thats all for today's update, hope to have one for next week again unless something significant happens before then.
