Lee and Sandy camped out on the property for Memorial Day Weekend. Lee and Jillena worked on the radiant heat insulation while Jeff was upstairs putting up the "crown" moulding at the top of the walls.

Dave and Diane came out again today and spent some time cleaning up the 1st floor. Jillena worked on taping the radiant heat insulation seams, and Jeff was busy applying more stain.

Now that the interior staining is finished, it's time to move outside and set up scaffolding to defuzz, stain, and chink the outside of the house. The plan is to set up on the east side first (shown in the picture) and complete one entire wall, including chinking, before moving the scaffolding to the next wall. First, the ground needs to be leveled better so John fired up the bulldozer and graded around the house. Jeff added the rest of the below-grade insulation as well. In the evening, Jeff put up more radiant insulation in the basement.

In the evening, Jeff worked on the radiant insulation, but earlier, he disassembled our matching dutch entry doors in preparation for installing them within the next few weeks.
