There hasn’t been much progress to show in pictures. Our neighbor is a painter, and is doing a very good job on the exterior paint. He is getting all the caulking done and coating any exposed nail heads so they don’t rust and streak. He has finished the back 3/4 of the house and is working on the front of the house, so I thought I would post a view from the finished back side of the house.
Did you notice the top of the tallest gable is a darker color than the main body of the house? The siding up there is a ‘fishscale’ or ‘scalloped’ siding. Toby highlighted it with the darker shade of paint. Click on the small picture and the fullsized picture will open up in a new browser window. Zoom in on that picture to see the details of the siding. It looks *really* good in real life. We are mostly done with the scaffolding that you see in the picture. If you know anyone who is interested in commercial grade scaffolding, please have them contact me.
