Pat made a video to send to her brother and his wife in Albuquerque so I figured I would post it here:

Week 21 -Drywall delivered
This week activity is difficult to pin down. Lots of odds and end being accomplished. I guess the biggest activity is the delivery of the dry wall and the associated items mud, corner bead, 
special cove and tape.
Week 20 – Ready for Drywall
Week 20 was basically a short week with the holiday, insulation was finished up and other minor odds and end tied up getting ready fro drywall.
The skylights were installed, temporarily, because were awaiting the roof to do the flashing the same color as the roof. The Wolf Range Hood fan was mounted on the roof. The MDF Craftsman III style pocket
doors were installed to the guest room complex as well as the Master bedroom complex and the Master bath door as well, we are using HÄFELE Hawa Junior 80/Z Sliding Wood Door Hardware Fittings (176 lbs. Max Door Weight) equipped with Smuso soft close feature for all of the pocket doors.
The fire door to the garage was installed as well as the door to the exterior Utility Shed.
Linksys Velop Installation
Preparing for the new house I did a great deal of research on new trends in WiFi. I was impressed with the Linksys Velop (Belkin Network Products). I waited for a sale and purchased a three pack. I may have been able to get by with two units, but I wanted to make sure I had coverage in the Barn and the chicken coop.
Velop is a 100% mesh network – A Velop modular Wi‑Fi mesh system outperforms traditional routers and range extenders giving you 100% seamless Wi‑Fi without lag or buffering. With other Wi‑Fi, the signal degrades as you move farther away from the router, leaving you susceptible to dropped connections. Velop gives you full-strength Wi‑Fi everywhere.
While I was waiting for the water delivery for the pool I installed the new network behind the old network so I can transition the cameras with out problems. I only install two nodes one in the Bunk House and one in the barn.
The process was very straightforward and took about 45-minutes including the firmware update.
The plus was we now have the same signal at the dock as in the barn and the bunk and the main house. I will retest after the dry wall in installed next week.
At this point I am extremely happy with the results
