Stilts, Screens and Samples

Elizabeth saw the mud-men working on their stilts in the garage when she ran out the back door of the screened porch urgently motioning me to hurry into the garage area and get their picture. They are graceful walking on those things while working over their heads smearing plaster. We were told by the builder today their work on the house would be completed Monday.

Steve started applying the screen to the back porch today. He suggested finishing the inside of the porch with redwood which will look really nice.

We had a nice afternoon at the house with Paul's parents looking through the many paint samples we picked up in town this week. Rita is a well known landscape artist and her talents with color were the greatest of help. We have struggled over our paint choices, but with Rita's help we narrowed down our selections today. An old friend of Dan's, Ed Harris, drove by the house today checking on our progress. They had a nice visit catching up on all the local news.
