Construction update

Besides our little Spanish lesson complements of Emilie, we also got some pictures of actual progress on our house. We now have a front door, as well as the two doors in the garage (the one into the house and the other one out the side of the garage)...


Of course, we don't actually have a garage door, but I guess that will come soon enough (our neighbors already have theirs).

We also have a fireplace (as opposed to just a place for a fireplace!) and a whole lot of plumbing supplies (why they're in the middle of the living room floor, I have no idea!)...


We did find it quite ironic that (if you look close enough), the warnings on the fireplace cover actually say "Keep combustibles away" and that there is a "Risk of Fire." I guess our fireplace is just supposed to be decorative? Darn lawyers!

It looks like the pipe you're talking about goes through the ceiling to the outside. It's probably the sewer vent. It keeps pressure from building up inside your sewer and vents the sewer gases to the air outside.
