Siding downhill.

We got started about eight this morning and it was a very productive day. The oppressive heat and humidity were no match for our determination. Most of the time. Other times I wanted to curl up and cry. But we finished one gable wall and made big progress on the largest remaining section. That one will be a real beast to finish though, as it’s the highest part and spans the “nubbin”. Another issue is that we are about to run out of siding. I miscalculated and so we are a bit short. So tomorrow afternoon we will head back to Georgia for more. That is a little frustrating, but such is life. I still think we have a decent chance of finishing by the end of Saturday. Today we also installed some of the 1×4 trim pieces. We still have a lot of them left to go though. It was another beautiful evening out here on the farm with deer and lots of lightning bugs. After “dinner” we cut a bit of grass until it became too dark to continue. That felt pretty good despite being tiring. Now there are a lot of stars out. I think tonight is a new moon. In a couple of hours it should really be impressive.
