Three Stories Up

Sometimes you have to be brave and go out and take a picture of what you really don't want to see.

But he hasn't fallen off yet. The foam insulation was all up on wall #2! That meant siding would follow soon after. 

Temporary footholds on the roof. Note the window trim was already going up!

We used a PVC trim for the fancy stuff (deep trim). The siding and trim on this one side of the house were up in about 2 weeks or so. That is with a DIY-er with a crew of teens working nights and weekends (all I did was provide clean laundry, meals, and watermelon breaks). 

But it was July, the thunder-stormy season, and it doesn't really feel good to be up on a metal ladder or scaffolding when lightning starts flashing in the distance. 

Sometimes we just quit work and sat out to watch the light show. Maybe it would bring rain our way. 
(did I mention before that most of the time rain gets "stuck" on that butte across the way?)
