Stucco Started

 Finally getting started on putting stucco back on the house.  Invested in a cement mixer due to the expected amount of stucco I'd have to do, and because I'll need to do the deck footings as well.  This is my first time doing large sections of stucco and results are good.  This is the scratch coat.  It goes faster than expected, so I need to have all of my lathe 100% prepped and I can knock out the rest of the stucco very quickly.

Front Windows and Deck Ledger

 Finally getting started on the front basement windows.  Will also be installing the ledger for the front deck, so some extra demo of the stucco was required.  My temporary vent cover stucco was a little harder to remove, so I haven't done it yet in these pictures.

Basement Bedroom Window

 Finally getting the first new window installed in the basement bedroom.  There was some wood rot under it, so I had to replace that wood, and update the sheathing.  Ran out of sealing tape so it's only partly done in the last picture.

Revised Prototype

 Playing with paint to make the bookshelf a little more dramatic and separate it more from the upper wall. Ignore the water stain, washing machine delivery. Looks good so far.  If I continue to like it I'll make a more permanent shelf later when it's time to finish the house.  I used scrap for this one, so the top will obviously go all the way to the far wall, and I'll integrate it with the bricks better.
