the exterior walls are up - they are conventional 2x6 construction (this is not one of the features that make this house unique) ... you can also see the waterproof membrane on the foundation wall (man, that stuff is really sticky! - no, I mean really sticky!) ... with that stuff up, the foundation is almost ready to be backfilled (i.e. the hole all around the foundation can be filled in)
oh, and the grape vine is doing what it does best - providing shade for the greenhouse patio when needed the most
