And, as an early Christmas present to me,
Dave worked all week so the side of my house that faces the driveway could be done before the holidays. No more big ugly ripped-up plastic tarps for me -- at least on this side of the house!
There's still a few pieces of siding missing near the soffits. We're still trying to figure out the most attractive way to terminate the rainscreen up there - the soffit vent is a continuous strip right there against the house and the rainscreen cannot run directly into it. We were planning on using some kind of trim piece to stop the siding short of the soffit, but the windows are so close to the soffit that they're messing up that plan. We've just got to try some stuff and see what looks best - we may end up closing the existing vents and installing those round plastic vent thingies into the bottoms of the soffits.
Dave is off all next week so there won't be any updates for a while. Have a happy, healthy holiday season - see you next year!
