Mid-week renovations

Tonight after work it was still light outside so Ryan and I headed out to finish up the last few pieces of siding that needed to go up. We put up the last new piece and then put a few of the old pieces back up over the porch to be replaced when we do that whole section at a later time.

Then I sanded and primed the bathroom window casing so if we get rain this week we should be all covered.

It’s hard to see in the picture because it was getting dark but the siding is done here (just have the siding by the door to patch!)

On the list for next weekend:
– Strip paint off siding near door
– Cut siding near door to prepare for new siding
– Make and mount a block for the porch light (were thinking something like this: Porch Light)
– Fit in new siding around door
– Make and attach cap for door

With luck we’ll get that all day with or without rain since it’s under the porch. I’d also like to put mouldings up around all the window caps but that requires good weather and more time. We’ll see how far we get.
