Just to get some perspective on the task, we went off to enjoy some quiet contemplation in the mountains:



As long as we were there anyway, I also got some skiing in:



Back at the house, the word of the week was "glass."

From glass to a glassy shine, the lower deck finally got its sealer:




Of course, all that glass around the house needs some light to reflect and the new dining room chandelier should take care of that, once it has some bulbs in it:



One last piece of glass covered the camera in the entry system. Once the system is hooked up and working, we can see who is asking for admittance into our house before we admit them. We don't one anyone bedazzled by all this glass.



Next week, the last of the glass, more paint and more trim work.
