This week the guys have been busy working on soffits and putting up the planking on the porch ceiling. They also started the board and batten siding on the gable ends. The beautiful redwood shingles have been delivered for the big dormer and they add a wonderful scent to the house! They have started pressure washing the logs to prepare them for stain. The basement stairs have been delivered and they are building retaining walls around the basement windows. Many activities are going on in an attempt to get the house finished enough on the outside to have the stain applied. Other work soon to happen is exterior grading and application of the foundation stone. Art is hoping to have the outside finished up by Thanksgiving.
David and I went out for a great after-season shoreline exploration boat trip. We drove around the entire perimeter of the lake, stopping at Uno's for an early dinner. After visiting with our neighbor to view their spectacular new house, it was quite late when we returned to the dock. Too dark for pictures but I'll be back this weekend to help out with the Savageman Triathlon and hopefully I will get some photos to update the blog with.
