It's been a long time...

Sorry I have not posted in quite a while; the days just seem to be slipping by without any time to get on the computer and do anything.


A lot has been done; the roof is on (actually it has been done for a week) and all the storm doors are installed. Here are some shots:

We are very pleased with how the roof turned out. It makes a nice clean line on the house. A house of this age it looks like it belongs. Plus being a metal roof with a 30-40 year guarantee, it will be the last roof we will have to put on this house. We are currently still waiting for the front stoop to arrive, it is held up by the ordering of the railings. They had to come from somewhere in Indiana. Last time we called about it, the response was "Don't call us, we will call you when it arrives." When that finally arrives, the last of the siding will be put on the front of the house. This is what the front looks like right now:

A little unfinished compared to the rest of the house. Tom has spent a good portion of this week working on the inside of the porch. He is sanding and repainting the whole thing so it will be more like a three season room. I am looking forward to using it when it is completed. I will post pictures of that when completed. That's all for now. I will post more when we have some more progress......
