Lesa wants to get this done by Nov 20 for the cultural celebration the occasion of the dedication of our new Stake Center. Making progress but the remaining details are the little
nitty gritty details- trim, touch up paint, roof shingles, hand rails for the upper and lower porches, staircases etc. Here's Shaw resting his chin on the 2
nd floor and me taking a picture through the bedroom window.
We stained a batch of the roof shingles and they came out far darker than intended. This was supposed to be "red oak" but it looks rather "dark walnut" to me. The bag on the left is the other 2/3
rds of the shingles and those got stained today in two lighter reddish colors and we'll put them on in a random pattern.
Here are a couple of interior walls ready for installation.
Front face with the windows sitting in place- they aren't glued in yet.
Shaw placed a salt dough boy named "Flat Jack" in the 2
nd floor doorway to pose for this picture.

There is nothing like a good project!
