Sunshine and flowers

It's been another week and this is what's been going on at Whitney!  The kitchen floor is going down and looks great.  Bob's been a busy man this week, and here he is taking a break.  I hear that his nickname is Sunshine because he's such a happy and joyful guy and never complains about anything.

Here's the kitchen floor and the floor in the 3rd floor bathroom, both waiting for grout.

Auggie was working hard today too.  He painted the front doors, caulked all the windows and porch ceiling, and worked on the clay flower medallions on the porch.  They are extremely fragile and he had a hard time getting the old paint off and the primer on.  This is just gray primer and eventually the flowers will be painted purple.

His sidekick Brandon has been sick the last couple of days so we kept him company today while we were planting flowers.  Here's what we spent the day doing:

You can see the baby grass too if you look closely!  We met many more neighbors today while we were working in the yard and they sure are glad to have someone in this house!  We have agreed to be on the inaugural Wilkinsburg house tour at the end of September.  We keep hearing how many people want to see the finished house.  We want to show everyone the great work that Jim and his crew have been doing.

Until next week....
