Ship(lap) of fools.

I got an early, but not unreasonable start this morning. I would have been plenty happy to stay in bed for a while longer, but my dad arrived just after seven, and we got started. We did some drywall work, then I went to Home Depot for some more sheetrock and a few other things. We hung some panels in the garage, and after lunch I went over to Chapel Hill for a load of shiplap. I got a pretty good deal on some boards that were a little nicer than I was expecting. Back at the farm we started installing them in the guest apartment. It was pretty slow going at first, but we soon began going pretty quickly. Tomorrow morning I will really set things up better so that we can be more efficient. I think we can really go a lot faster than we did today. But this was a good start. Tomorrow if we can finish the shiplap in the apartment kitchen/living room and the install the recycled siding on one wall of the apartment bedroom then I will be pretty happy. I ran out of daylight before I could get a picture of the shiplap we installed, but below is the trailer loaded down.
