The color picks were a collaborative effort of lots of the family - Gwen, Sara, Josh, Chelsea, Fran, and Deedee, plus Poo.

Once the foundation work was done, the outside painting began. The actual painting took about two weeks from start to finish.

There was much wood to replace, particularly on the garage. Then caulking between the trim boards and the shingles. This took most of the time - and a lot of caulk!!

Once the wood replacement and caulking was complete, the painting began. They sprayed all the flat surfaces first with the wall color. This took three coats of paint to cover the shingle color (battleship gray). Once that was complete, the trim was painted. That took three coats also since the last paint that was put on those boards was in the late 50's!

Once completed, the finished product looked just as we envisioned it. And it blends well with the surrounding landscape.
