It has been a while since my last post, and I need to finish my summer projects blogs... so lets see if I can do that this week! So, we are at number 3! The Chimney...this was not on our to do list at all, when Davin was working on the garden project he noticed that part of the chimney was deteriorating from the inside out...he then decided to investigate. We then had to call a exterminator to come rid us of our unknown residents - carpenter ants, making their home right in our chimney!!! Davin had to then rip off the whole chimney with some help from our friend Scott! Then we had to spend more $$$... He had to rebuild the frame and then put up new base boards, tar paper that, then do flashing. He did all of this while I was at my brothers college graduation. My dad and my brother stopped by to see if he needed any help on the way, dad helped him flash the roof and other stuff. After 3 weekends of working and 2 vacation days Davin finished all of it and then we had to decide to paint it or side it... The picture is part of the redone chimney on the left side...
