Walls Becoming WALLS

The burlap and 6x6 wire (mesh) and miscellaneous concrete 'scrambled eggs' and other protrusions on our concrete walls are disappearing.  Not without a lot of work.  Thank you, Carol!  And our Mexican concrete finishers - Fidel, Fernando, Victor, Pedro, Juan, Sabino, Guadolupe, Luis, and Humberto - say they enjoy coming here and working.  They are doing a great job of getting our walls finished. And thanks Keith, for keeping up with the concrete mixing and anything else asked of  you.
I thought I would provide before and after pictures.  These are of the Northern most 3 bays on the East side.  They are now in base coat, curing, awaiting the finish coat.

  These are before and after pictures of the West (3 northern most bays) that are now finished (except for paint).

 There are only 2 bays that need some prep work (burlap and metal removing and grinding,and hammer-chiseling).  All other bays are awaiting base coat, in base coat or finished.

With this coming week being cold, we are hoping to be finished the second floor.  Then, we focus on prepping the living room 'cathedral' ceiling and invite the concrete finishers back. When all this plastering is done, we can invite the carpenters back to finish the framing.
The ladder-lift has been a very welcome, very well-used tool.  As is the mortar sprayer.  It has sped  up applying the mortar.  The bonding adhesive has helped make the mortar stick better to the walls and overhead.
