January Thaw!






After a record snowfall in December and very cold weather the first two weeks of January, the workers returned to the house this week. Today is the warmest it has been since November! The high today hit the mid-50's. The exterior siding is now complete the house is starting to take shape. The drywall crew came in on Tuesday and starting taping on Thursday. This crew is from South Carolina and consists of four individuals who really can tape. If I was doing this, I would still be in the first room.

The painters stained the tongue & groove cypress for the living room and the exterior porches in the garage area. Heaters were brought in so the wood would absorb the stain. We had to run some experiments to get the stain color we wanted and we are pleased with the results.
