My Stairway to Heaven

It's Monday, time to get back at it.
I stopped by the site about noon to see what had been done so far today.....
The stair supports were anchored in place ready for the treads.
My walnut tree is filling in nicely with the season and almost hides my stairs - or the neighbours, depending on which side you are on.
Here is looking down at my tree.
And looking up at the deck.

Today the drywall boss was on site sanding. A heater/ fan had been brought in on Saturday. My contractor said that it was toasty warm inside this morning, proving how well insulated the place is... and the drywall is finally dry.

A new subcontractor was on site. The front rockwall begins with laying out the rocks and washing each of them. Mixing up the appropriate adhesive and applying the rocks in a timely manner before things set. 
The same fella will be taking care of my floors inside.

Everyone was busy.... This is good.
I will pick up some stain and cover the ends of the treads.
And there you have it.... Led Zepplin completed.
Okay railings are still needed....
Down....
And up...
Things are progressing quite nicely below. I think we will have enough to cover below on the foundation but it's best to do them in two batches, less chances of things cracking with the two sub surfaces.
Yup, my house is looking good!
