The renovations are starting again







We've made a decision to Stucco the outside of our house. It's long overdue. Ralph has been so busy trying to get things ready. The biggest problem we face is the weather!! With all the rain that we've been receiving, we can't get all the work done. Fortunately for us, the weather has also restricted "Henderson" from completing his other jobs. Henderson is the contractor that is working with us, so we've had a short delay for which we are thankful. You will see our progress to date on the house. What Ralph is doing is adding additional "overhangs" over our side and sliding glass door at the back of the house. We are also planning to have a new overhang by our front door if Paul is able to free up some time to help us with this.






Taking away some of the wood on the Bay window, we discovered that we have "rot" in some places. I guess you can expect that after so many years. As a result, we ordered a new window which with Ron's help will be very nice. We hope to have this installed sometime this week. The work on the rest of the house should start while I'm visiting with Laura and Jay which works out well. I'll take Oakley with me and then we don't need to worry about him barking all the time because of all the noise outside.
