Oscar working on the 'arcos'

Oscar working on the arches yesterday with Coyota my dog in front

I felt it would need something as a filler up top and not just the columns connected to the roof. I was thinking smaller arcs next to each post but Oscar insisted they should be a full arc. Today he's doing a semi-finish coat and I think they will look good. He also wants to make some type of molded design on the columns where the arc meet but we'll see.

They still have to fill in the wall where they cut out the old marquesina, give a finish coat to the top of the roof ... and then stucco everything. Maybe two more weeks worth of work.   The blue plastic is to protect windows and doors.

The construction of the house finished in April 2011 and I'm pretty much settled in. As of March 2014 I'm in preparation for rain mode for this coming summer. That includes sealing and painting things and dealing with drainage issues from last year.
