Week Eleven

I realize that I'm publishing weeks 10, 11, and 12 at the same time, so sorry. In any case, here are some more pictures:

I don't really know what the hell this is, but it's obvious that this strange yucca-like plant has grown an asparagus. A 15-foot asparagus. Eventually, a worker from the municipality will level it with a machete for getting too close to the high voltage line at the top of the picture.

Here is Luis David (aka "Luisdai") demonstrating how to cover the walls with cement, and how to make them even and smooth. They need to make those lines that act as a guide for the plank, which they then pull down to remove any excess cement.

I thought this was kind of interesting. This is how they work with the electrical system, and they run tubes with wires through the ground. Apparently.

A close-up of the texturing.

Nelson, one of our welders, hard at work.

A guy using a circular saw to cut the holes for the electrical outlets.

More and more trusses...very modern art.

Above what will be the kitchen.
