Gerald and I returned on Thursday and planned to finish all the low siding on Friday. But on Friday, we both decided we were tired of the rickety blocks and boards we had been using for makeshift stairs. Gerald set to work to build a temporary set of stairs. It was lunchtime before he was finished. I didn't mind, because I got caught up on my reading.

We spent the rest of the day on siding. Here's Gerald cutting out a circle to accommodate a porch light fixture.

On Friday night, we lit off the inaugural fire in our new fireplace. Our neighbor Kathleen was there for the event.

On Saturday, Steve Hampton, who runs cattle on phase 3 stopped by to bid on the site work. We were happy to finally meet him. He told us he planned to bring back the cows to our section of the ranch later this summer.

By the time we left on Saturday, we had installed all the boards except what goes on top of the windows.
