more siding (horizontal...)

I was going to take Monday (Nov. 10) off so that we could put some siding up - the kids didn't have school and we figured we could get some work out of them... Unfortunately Monday morning looked pretty menacing (like every other day for the past two weeks) so I went to work. Even more unfortunate was the fact that once I got to work the weather cleared up and it turned into a surprisingly pleasant "would-have-been-a-good-day-to-work-outside" day. Well, Grace and the kids did anyway - actually just Grace and Jesse and his girlfriend, Lisa. (Thanks, Lisa!) They managed to get all of the bottom siding on. Grace painted it today. (It looks stripey in the picture but that's because she hasn't painted the little channels yet. (I couldn't live in a stripey house...) They're painted now. Looks nice!)

Grace, you're awesome!

I'm with you on that, Al: no stripey houses allowed. :P
