Siding

They have gotten most of the siding on. We had a hold up. I realized the vinyl shake he was thinking about putting up there was terrible looking and looked really cheap. So we started looking at other options. The fiber cement shakes were about $600 a square and dad said that was way too much. I found some vinyl shake that was made thicker and looked exactly like the fiber cement. Well I guess dad wasn't happy with that price either. He said something about just putting real cedar shakes up there, but I'm not sure what he has decided on. They still have to put the stone one the front porch and on the sides of the garage.

He has already put my faux beams in place to separate the siding from the rock along the porch.
The back is all siding.

While trying to duck under the trees, so our heads didn't get knocked off, we both leaned too far and there we went. Luckily everything was in dry bags and tied down. Well, almost everything. Kev was trying to put his phone back into the dry box but didn't get to it fast enough. His phone got wet, but seems to work ok after sitting in a bag of rice for a few days. I didn't have my shoes strapped tight so they slid off. A friend in front of us managed to grab one shoe and one paddle. We carefully walked the canoe across the rapid and dumped the water out. I will admit I was pissed off about my shoe. I didn't talk to Kev for awhile. I know it wasn't his fault, but I wanted to be mad at someone. He promised he would replace th
