Almost done

The guys will probably be finished with the siding today. Here's what BobBie and I saw on the walkaround yesterday.


The back porch is almost done. They'll need to put end caps on the wall.


Here is the back of the house. They need to caulk around the windows. The doormat covers up the culvert that goes under the house. Julio, the forerman, said that as they were working, they kept hearing a soft thumping sound. The sound was caused by bees, apparently confused by the pink insulation and later by the siding. Some were going in and out as we did the walkaround, and BobBie immediately identified them as honeybees. There's a big colony under the house.

They put siding on Dad's concrete work in the back. Most of the major tweaking they did was on Dad's projects.


Here is the demarcation between Mom's side of the duplex and the neighbor's. The spruce tree disguises it from the street.


Freddy is hard at work with measurements.

The crew has only a little more siding to install.
