Weekend update and UPDATED plans for the week

Thanks again to our many volunteers who worked hard this weekend to move forward The House God Built. We had beautiful weather to enjoy and the good company of old and new friends to share in the work.

This weekend we were able to make great progress on the siding. The north and back sides of the house are done and the south side of the house is done on the first level. We'll be able to finish this side and start the front later this week.

We also started working on building the porch. It should be finished soon. Pastor Thomas has already tried out sitting on the porch and seemed to enjoy it. (I think he'll like it even better in about a month when we turn the house over to him.) Once the railing is up later this week we'll be ready to side the front of the house.

Since the weather was so beautiful we decided to concentrate our work outside and left the tile until later. We got three loads of rock delivered and spread it out to form the base of the driveway - an unexpected but much needed bonus.

The drywall finishers worked again on Monday night and the house is now ready for primer. TONIGHT we will be masking off windows and hopefully starting to apply the primer. We should have times available for painting soon! Check back here on the blog for more information.
