Because I aim to please....

This post is mostly for Heath's enjoyment (as well as Karole-Ann's) because most of you won't really understand the significance of the amount of work that has been done here at the parsonage. (he asked to see "deckless pictures"...)

First of all...there have been many people here working on fixing this place up! The siding started last fall and with the help of many hands one side was finished a few weeks ago. There is a bit of painting left to be done...but the bulk work of the siding is done. This was also by far the hardest side to do...


The next thing that happened was a couple of Butch's guys from Old Mill Construction came to do a bit more clean up in the backyard and while they were at it they took down the old rotting back deck/stairs. This is what it looks like now...




Then...the work has started for the siding on the backside of the house. Mr. D and Mr. B (Donovan and Biller) have been here this week in the crazy hot weather tearing off old siding and getting it all ready to reside. The cool thing about this project is that it looks as though they are going to put a door from where the window in the dining room is...and make a sort of patio/deck type thing out there instead of rebuilding a deck where the old one was! This is happiness for me:) So envision this picture...with a door where the regular sized window is....and a patio with my (Aaron and Lacy's) grill on it!!!
