As I wake this morning…like many mornings, to the jaw clenching sound of steady gnawing near my head…I am somewhat comforted.  It’s almost over.

We’ve made a decision on the siding problem.  After many quotes. many meetings, and a little professional encouragement from an architect friend – (Thanks AKK!) We are moving forward with Galvalume: 26 gauge, 12 inch rib in Burnished Slate.  Deposit paid, (*gulp*) materials ordered…we should get rolling in about 2 weeks.  I’ve included a photo of a barn done in the color we have chosen to give you some idea.  The theory is that the dark shade will help the house disappear into the woods.
