More painting prep and Electrical work


Louie is power washing the house after he and his crew did the first round of caulking.  

Our Pioneer House is looking a bit tough, but it is getting clean!  

Les and his crew have been inside wiring, below shot is in the kitchen.  Jason is working near where the kitchen sink will be installed.

And here is the upstairs hallway, a couple of ceiling lights wired in.

 It was not necessary to purchase a new electrical panel, nor did we have to move it to a different location.  Here it is in the pantry, being re-wired up.

And now for a few garden shots.  The whole family has been helping with this enormous task!  Our results have been astounding!  

The above bed will have dozens of calla lilies in bloom soon, as well as roses.  While pulling out the weeds, we came across hundreds of small bulbs which had laid hidden all spring amongst the weeds.

Here is the front bed, with an Exbury azalea in bloom, a lovely peachy orange color.

We edged the sidewalk and found that it is in decent shape.  A new sidewalk would look totally out of character, so we are keeping this one just as it is.

One path led to the wood shed (to the right) and one path to the old cottage.
