Front gable



We built the front porch yesterday and Dad got busy today building the front gable. It looks so cute now that the front has some different lines. Matt and I had to move the huge pile of siding from one side of the front yard to the other so that HEA (Homer Electric Assc.) will have a clear path to dig a trench for our power. Dad hung the meter box and we're waiting for them to show up. We've had snow the last few days and yesterday there was quite a bit on the ground. Fortunately it's warmed up and we had some beautiful rainbows and sunny skies this afternoon. I'm hopeful that our rainy summer will not just turn to a snowy fall...it would be nice to have a little break to finish up our exterior work. I started painting exterior trim and have the facia boards all done. We picked a pretty blue-green-grey called "Midnight Garden". I think it will look nice with the siding stained brown.
