More work

Now the front is finished...almost



Just in time for the Heritage Tours which took place this weekend, the wizard painters completed almost every part of the house front. We like the new red door and trim accents which match the hues of the firehouse.

A heavy rain after the visit from approximately 500 people tested the repairs made before paint was applied. So far, so good!

House changes continue

House Changes Continue:


The last shall be first, we are told. But, in this case, the last is the last part of the front to be primed. The wee seat used on the veranda has been taken away for work indoors on a wet day outside. 

 We now have a red door and a green door, well, close! We liked the colour of the competitors' door across the street, so we'll have one like it soon. Is imitation really the sincerest from of flattery?


We know there is still much to do, but the front is such an improvement in our eyes. 

          

 The sun cast a golden glow at day's end. Oh, who knew this is LABOUR DAY?
