Nina made it out to the house yesterday after the cement truck was gone. It had brought the concrete for the V-ditch and two pads next to the back of the house for AC units to sit on.

The cement truck will be back in a few weeks to pour the top of the bridge and the various steps and staircases.
The painters were painting some early coat on the house and apartment yesterday so there was plastic all over. The apartment cabinets are finished. Picture 2 shows the refrigerator and stove wall. Picture 3 shows the east sink wall and Picture 4 shows more of the island.

The next picture, #6, looks the same, but it is from the laundry room in the house. Ted and Julio, the cabinet maker, purchased all the white cabinets at the same place in Anaheim.

Because the contractors were busy working on the vditch, Pete has been unable to spend any more time on covering the slope at the back of the house with weed fabric, rocks, and cactus. He has spent his time continuing to work on the gabions along the upper part of the left-hand driveway. Picture 7 shows him on a ledge that he has created in the steep hillside to let him terrace it so we can weed it and get to it easily.

Picture 8 shows a view down the length of the ledge he is standing on.
