The masons are hard at work this week, laying brick and block onto the concrete poured footings. You can see the start of the shape of the building. The bricks, which appeared to be more of a red color than we thought, are apparently only red on the sides that are not visible to the outside. So the outside wall appears to be the more 'sandy' color that we like.
One of the corners is where the master bedroom will be and we were a little shocked by how small that space seems to be within the foundation. It always amazes me how deceptive that can be, how an area laid out on the ground seems tiny, but when you erect walls around it, it seems spacious.
Anyway, this will be the last update for over a week since we're heading to Orlando for a much needed vacation next week. By the time we come back we expect they will be done with the foundation and moving onto framing. Exciting!
