Samantha adds siding to her skill set

Just the windows and siding to do, just?  Siding removed July 11th

Work on the kitchen progressed in fits and starts, depending who was available to work, the weather,  and what else we had to do.  We still had to shop for materials and maintain the gardens and pop home every so often to do laundry etc.  Nothing is as straight forward as you would hope.  But we had a lot of experience to draw on between us and we needed every bit of it.  Monday to Friday Tony and I chipped away at anything that needed doing
