You will recall that Kyle and I spent the better part of a day painting all the siding last week. After seeing the clapboard next to the charcoal-colored roof, Maya decided that there was not enough contrast.  She invited Sarinnagh, Fiona, Ben, and Caleb over to help repaint all the clapboard to a new color which I would describe as gray with a hint of blue. The group finished about two-thirds of the boards while I finished caulking all of the windows and trim. Maya also painted the front door and frame which we installed yesterday. If the weather cooperates we should be finished with the exterior by early next week and ready to start work inside.
