X marks the spot.

Not much going on... It's still very hot out. 

The crew finished off the framing in the basement.  Wiring is next.

It will be an 'unfinished basement' but the walls will be finished.  I just figured I would end up bumping into and wrecking the vapour barrier if it was left exposed. There will just be a cement floor and the roughed in plumbing, (someday bathroom) will just get studded walls. The cold room will get studded and insulated walls all round and the ceiling will be insulated so as not to make my bedroom any colder than it needs to be. The cold room will have two vents.. A warm air return up high and a cold air enter that will have a pipe down to the floor.

I am not exactly sure how things will proceed around the water piping. Not sure why it is so close to the wall, maybe it will change.

And that's about it.... I bought a couple of exterior lights and then took one back. The deck outside light is so high up that some lights just leave you staring up inside it rather than looking at the light shade - if that makes any sense. I am opting for LED lights as well.

I spend the day looking for stair (fence) post caps and ceiling fans.... I miss Home Depot.

I would hope the floor guy will return sometime soon.... The crew and my contractor will not be back until Monday.

So the sun continues to make things hot hot hot and the sunflower keeps expanding.

My yellow plums are almost yellow, but still quite firm.... Maybe ready to pick next week, probably two weeks.I have not seen the young buck and there does not appear to be any new damage to my veggies, rose or other flora, but he is leaving his mark behind.. Or rather his behind is leaving his mark...

That's a shitty way to end my blog today.... Hmmmm....

I will add that I ended my day by spending almost two hours picking blueberries a few blocks away.
