The landscaping is going well. From the schedule that Bob II provided, it appears they expected the first week to be primarily drainage work, followed by a couple of weeks of wall construction. While I don't think the drainage is totally complete, they got a good start on the walls this week. I talked with Bob II about the sitting wall along the east side of the chess board that T brought up yesterday. This wall was dropped last fall and, upon reflection, T believes a simple bench might actually be better than a wall. I also mentioned to Bob II that our east neighbor asked me today if we would consider extending the east-west walkway in front of the main house over to their walkway, with them picking up the incremental cost. We did not have a problem with this and Bob II said he would have Bob I contact them.
Late in the day, more wall stones arrived.
Frank and John (HAC) started installation of the exterior sunroom heat pump condenser. We have also decided to replace the two main house AC systems with new high efficiency units. They got one of the old condensing units out today and will have the other removed soon. Frank said he hoped to have everything functional within a week.

Mike and Nate framed the south porch and the area in front of the hot tub. Mike also picked up the porcelain floor tile.

Jerry (painter) and crew showed up and continued exterior painting now that Mike has finished installation of the cement board and caulked.
No electrical work today or this week. No roofing work this week. Still no word from the solar people. I am glad Eric raised the priority of our problem otherwise we might never get it resolved.
