Days 58 and 59 - Shedding more skin

OK, so who came up with the idea that we were going to just paint the two old sides of the house to match the swanky new siding? It was a good idea in theory - save us a few bucks in this project - which does make a difference. But as the construction continues, and we look at the condition of the old shingles, and rotting window trim, and consider the cost or painting those two sides ... it just doesn't make good financial sense.

So this is one of those "scope creep" items. You know it happens ... you start out with your scope, think you have it all defined, but then ... it changes.

See ya, old shingles:


Carys felt a little sentimental saying goodbye to the yellow


At the same time, two guys have been working on painting exterior trim
