Work is progressing on the exterior of our home, as you can see below. All of the stucco has now been removed, and the remainder of the cedar shake shingles have been taken off the top of the house, as well. We have also lost our front porch, as it was found to be rotten wood under the stucco when they removed it today. :-(
We now offically qualify for the "Remodled Welfare Home Award", A.K.A., "Best Tar-Paper Shack of 2008" here in Barron! We are so proud! Add to this the old dryer sitting in front of our garage (ours died this weekend, so we had to get a new one), and you can really imagine the whole picture our poor neighbors get to see when they look out their windows!!!!
Below is a picture of what is left of our front porch. This is for Jamie's benefit, as he is at work today and is getting his remodel information from the blog pictures.
I am home with a sick squirrel, and we are being assulted from all sides of the house by pounding and banging and an occasional jack-hammer. Quite a day here in Barron, WI!!!

I'm sure it will look great when it's all done:)
What kind of siding are you putting on? Or maybe you are staying with the tar paper?
It will be over before you know it and will look beautiful when it is all done. Tell Abby that we hope she is feeling better!
