Caulk Complete - Paint on Hand

No blog yesterday; long story short, old friends from Toledo called out of the blue to say they were in the OBX, we decided to take the kids kayaking and meet them for dinner. No work on house, late return, no blog. As spontaneous as I've ever been.

As for today, first, big thanks to Andy - with his help, we finished the caulking!! OK, I'm sure finished is too strong a word, I'll probably go around and mark "re-do" areas tomorrow, and really finish with one last tube tomorrow night, but all the trim has caulk on it which is the main thing.

Other big news - trip to paint store - ordered 23 gallons of color - 6 in tomorrow, rest on Weds. Also picked up a bunch of supplies to get started - likely to spray doors tomorrow. Maybe prep some trim.

Also today, spent some quality time cleaning up so the point-up crew will have access.

Tomorrow, finish cleaning some more, mark some point-up items with tape, and try to paint the doors. Decided to spray them, which means... they're coming off... again... Need to start a lessons learned page... door re-installation time-frame will go on it. If you're bored tomorrow, in the area, and want to help, I have a sanding sponge or paint brush (or sprayer) with your name on it!
