Coming Together

Fall is coming fast so before the endless rain gets here we are working on the big parts of the house that don't yet have juniper siding on them.  Getting true board and batten siding up takes alot of time I am sure glad our old boom ladder is holding on makes it much easier to get up there than the ladder  or scaffolding.   We bring juniper up from the barn where it is been waiting for the last year or two and paint all sides with a rosewood oil then measure cut and drill the attaching holes so it doesn't crack as bad.  We are done with the east, we are done with the west, almost done with the south side. Then off to the north side where the carport is.   It has been a real learning curve alot of fitting around things.  but I see the end of it in sight if the weather holds out.   Next spring we will add the last coat of stucco then the juniper window and door trim outside.

Thought I would ad some photo's of the mechanical room still working out some bugs but we now have heating and cooling all supplied with the two ground source heat pumps,  the radiant floor heat is also up and running sure is nice to have a working thermostat.   Lots of piping in  the mechanical room.
