The window well chiseled-face blocks were installed on Saturday.
Gravel was delivered (5 yards of crushed gravel)
A branch sticking out in the alley (an easement) was snapped by the delivery truck. Nothing we could really do about it. The recent rains had made branches heavy, hanging low.
West side window well leveled and gravel added for base.
Joe and Dad working on the East side.

Yard Rocks
The rocks (rockery?, rockeri?) have been mostly installed the past few days at the house. The design was put together somewhat before hand, and also on the fly by my Dad and the guy(?) - forgot his name.
A terraced design was put into each wall (east and west side of the front property). The stairs to the back yard on the east side were installed (chiseled risers and flat cement stairs).
The area for the main stairs is mapped out between the boulders.

Exterior paintouts and hydronic floors finished

Hydronic heat tubing installed
The siding for the outside (post wraps, soffits under the main deck) is complete. Just need to tap in stainless steel nails for the mitered joints.
The soffit material under the main deck. The same material was used to cover the stairway from the main landing to the deck.
Below is a photo record of all the main floor and upstairs hydronic tubing installed in the house. The basement photo record is in a much earlier post. All rooms in the house were photographed.

Funny. The sign says is pressure is below 50 psi, call the company immediately. I don't remember this being broken or cracked. And it reads ) psi. Obviously the system is still open, but I find it amusing.
