Work on the final cement layer of the last level continues.
A close up view of the finished pipe vent.
The prt covered with tarp are the unfinished pipe vents.
Now working on more of the last pipe vents.
Almost complete.

While our mason finishes the cementing of this last level, we cut down our workers from 4 people to 2, they have been preparing the wood posts, covering them with wire mesh, and stapling the rebars to the wood posts.
We finally cleaned out all the debris from the bond beam from inside the house. All this work meant having to move things arround the house. It was like major general cleaning! Phew! Good thing we have a small house with just enough stuff. :P
Today the workers will begin removing the bamboo facade outside the house covering the bond beam. We will cement that portion and put metal screens all around to serve as added ventilation as well as protection from any rodents, pests and snakes.
So far, having a ferrocement roof is good, however, our cell signals have weakened as well as our tv antenna. We need some kind of booster to get better signals. We hope that soon the sattelite tv company will include cell and internet too.
