Week 7: Short Week!

The reason it was a short week is because last week the students voted to work on Saturday, a sixth workday for the week. The purpose of that Saturday replacing the Friday after Thursday, July 4th Holiday, allowing us all to have a four day weekend. Although last Saturday it did not seem like such a “good deal”, when Wednesday Wrap Up happened and all looked forward to four consecutive days off, it seemed like a great deal!

We had a busy three days —- see images below!

Fascia Installed
Window Frames Constructed, Primed, and Installed.
Back Deck and Front Porch Deck Framing begun on the Site Deck — in the shade!
Siding Started in Background. Team ready for the Four Day Weekend!!

There will be more about our Siding choice as we move forward. We were very fortunate to have rk MILES Building Material Supplier, our perennial envelope material benefactor of whom we are enormously grateful, connect us with BlueLinx Building Products. The Board and Batten Siding we are using is a prefinished engineered wood product produced by LP SmartSide which besides giving the 8th Sister an excellent look offers outstanding benefit to our Carbon Accounting.

Back to a Five Day Work Week next Week!
