paper on the roof

I have to apologize for the poor quality pictures (i took them with my iPhone late in the day). However, they show the first day of roofing activity. What you see is the first layer of paper that gets mechanically fastened before the torch-down single-ply membrane goes on. In one of the photos you can see the hole where the skylight in the kitchen will eventually go. I'm told that by the end of this week the roof will be complete - minus the coping metal that goes on top of the parapet walls. That is the last thing that goes on after final stucco and final paint.

In addition to the roof, the stucco contractor continues to make progress. The first layer of mud should get sprayed on Monday. The whole process should take about 2 weeks as they require a 5-7 day curing period between the 3 coats.
