Floors finished, walls going in

 

Today was an important milestone in the completion of our house. The wood floors were sanded, cleaned, and stained yesterday, and today were coated with urethane and left to dry overnight. Also today, construction was begun on the five retaining walls on the north and south sides of the house.
