Stucco - Scratch coat

The cold days of fall are here, and after waiting six weeks for the soffit & facia contractor to arrive (after we hired them in late August and they said they would do the job within two weeks), and a couple weeks for some warm days, the stucco contractor came and put up the wire mech one day, and the scratch coat the next. He'll be back in the Spring to put on the final coat(s). (You will also notice that the soffit is only up, as we're STILL waiting to the contractor to come finish the job.)
