Around 11 Ryan was ready to start tiling the front area again.  I’m pretty sure almost every tile he did had to be cut (maybe 2 didn’t) today!  So we got the wet saw setup in the driveway and he went to work on tiling.  By 3pm he was done and it looks great!

Front hallway tile done!

A straight on view

The trim arrived early in the morning so Ryan got a couple rosettes stripped (I continued that job after bedtime) and he started putting up trim in the front hallway after organizing the trim (precutting to rough length and storing in the basement).

Chair rail started, the arch has all it’s trim, the door is waiting on rosettes

It’s a good after dark project to do a little at a time.

Today Ryan went and got the lift.  He’s already got the aluminum siding on the top section stripped off and organized, he’s starting on the old siding.  The little back porch is last since we don’t need the lift for that.  Once the siding is stripped it’s time to paint the high sections that are left.  Lots of red accents, a coat of green and we should be good to go.  We have the lift through sunday morning.
