Not Railroad Siding


Ho Hum.  Another week at the soffit and siding business.  It was broken up by visiting with the friendly Medicare Supplement Insurance lady on Thursday.   Now that’s exciting.
 
      I finished the siding-soffit project on Friday.  It went like this:

 


  
 

 

                                 Threshold replacement was included.

 

 

     Saturday, back to the kitchen floor.  The goal is to get an even surface so you don’t feel the holes and lumps beneath the underlayment.

 

 
    And there were a couple of sunrises to keep one’s spirits up during the winter doldrums and the drought (not helped much by watching the first installment of Ken Burns' "Dust Bowl"). 

 

 

    Sunday, we made a trip to Hays, thinking to pick up some flooring for the old kitchen, but that didn’t turn out too well, as they didn’t have what we needed in stock.  We took the pickup, but came back with one gallon of paint.  Shipping costs $250, so guess we’ll make another trip.  Gas was $3.07 in Hays.

    Thanksgiving this week, so westward ho!
