There be siding!
I can't say how happy I was to see the progress. As I pulled up to the house, I noticed that the siding wasn't on the porch, and was very pleased when I walked around to the back and saw this.
I'm sure my handyman Jesse doesn't read my blog, but I now have stones around the base of the cistern cover.
Most of the remaining stones were placed on the ground around the house. When W.T was still removing the back room, he mentioned to me that he thought there was a raccoon family under the house. Hopefully this will discourage them from coming back.
My little town got lots of rain this past weekend. Heavy rain fell Saturday, Sunday and Monday. You can see the extension cord partially buried in the mud, as was some of the PVC piping under the bathroom. I'm hoping those stones also kept some of the water from running under the house.

My sister and brother-in-law are visiting me this week, thus the short post. The one-day trip on Tuesday meant I didn't get to layout the gardens, hopefully next trip. I'll go back to MGF in a couple weeks and will have a longer post after that.
Until then, never surrender, never give up, and may all your dreams come true.
What a difference the siding makes. Prettier for sure, but also more snug and better insulated. I can see why you're thrilled!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Leigh. The insulation thing was top of my list of reasons to get that siding up. In Dec-Jan-Feb when the average lows are in the mid 30s, I'll appreciate it even more.
