No More Shingle Siding!

Last week, amongst everything else, the shingle siding came down and so did the wood siding underneath and it all went into a 30 cu yd dumpster. Bob packed it down a ton of times, threw in a whole other ton of garbage, debris & construction (um... deconstruction) and laid the old doors on top for a cap. YEAH!

I had been up the Saturday before to do some more painting (bedroom ceilings & priming the bathroom), some weed pulling and the demolition of the dining room. I also pulled a few rows of shingle boards off the driveway side of the house since I wouldn't be up to help with the rest of the tear-off.

Bob's done a great job in the upper bathroom. He and his wife tiled and grouted the floor and roughed in the new linen closet.

He also is close to putting in the laundry chute (none right now), but their main objective was to get the whole house wrapped before the rain really started.

It's coming along.
