Paint

In September, primer and paint went on. Charlie Slaughter, our neighbor, painted our house! His #1 piece of advice: use oil-based primer. So that is what you see here. In the meantime, there is Julie, working on the formwork for the front steps.

One week later, Charlie sprayed the house with my paint color choice. Tom and I both really like the color - for me, it is especially good because of the way it changes in the sun. The house looks almost yellow in the full sun, but it's a solid green in the shade.
