Fish Out of Water

Musings about life & travel from an East Coast native living on the Left Coast in the CA State Capitol since 2004 and now also spending time at a home-away-from-home in Evanston, IL. This fish has lived in Madison, WI (7 years); Portland, OR (2 years); Las Vegas, NV (7 months); Middlebury, VT (3 summers); Marne-la-Vallee, a small town east of Paris, France (6 months); Middletown, CT (3 years); & Marshfield, MA, the fish's coastal hometown 40 miles south of Boston (17 years).

Balcony Remodel - Week #???

We had some "down" time with our project while waiting for the window to arrive (must have been quite a journey!). But we finally got the new window installed along with the rough electrical, so the next step on the exterior is the multi-phase stucco process. Below are photos of Phase 1 (paper & wire prior to Inspection milestone).



The scaffolding will stay in place until the final stucco layer is applied (3-4 weeks, depending on the weather and its effects on the curing of the stucco). So it's on-street parking for Odo for several weeks, but the scoot can still live in the garage, as I discovered I can ease it out under the structure and the tape. Yay!

Note to self - parking Odo directly under a tree may be a better location to avoid sideswipes near the intersection but it's also apparently an ideal location to attract bird droppings... yuck!
