in case we forgot--june, 2010

front siding almost complete

Things are moving along.  Returning after Sarah's birthday and extended stay in the city, I found the house --at least the front--completely transformed with its new siding.  

So much had to be done before the siding could be put up, months of rebuilding the porch, the patching of many holes, building of windows, it was hard to imagine it would ever be done.  And of course, every step was such an improvement over the completely collapsed porch, the flapping white vinyl siding, the crumbling chimney, that it scarcely seemed necessary to get to the next step.  I was almost content with the green Lowe's foam insulation. 

In fact, when I returned home late last night, I circled the house and was thrilled to see the insulation installed on the north wall.  It wasn't until this morning that I noticed the siding on the front.
Praise be.
