Overdue Update

The front of the house this morning. Can you dig the purple steps? We had intended for them to be brown, but that's one of those colors that went a different way when spread out over a large area. A future coat (and believe me, it's going to need future coats) can tweak the color back towards the brown for which we'd hoped. Take note of the awesome handrail action.

I'm seriously overdue on an update to this blog, but not to worry: much progress has been made since the last update: exterior paint is done, downspouts have been upgraded and finished, Shannon and I have gotten about 60% of the electrical in, the fire sprinkler guys have gotten their stuff in and inspected, I've been drilling in vents and working with a plumber (Chuck) and we're grinding away at that now. I'll need to have Shannon back to finish up the electrical, I need to get the electrical service upgraded and moved, and have to figure out and install all the network, phone, cable, upgrade the upstairs electrical, and others(?) - and then drywall. We've purchased and received our kitchen cabinets, the vanity for the kids' bathroom, the washer and dryer, and hopefully the master bath vanity this weekend. With any luck, I'd say we're about 4-6 weeks from drywall.
