Fascia

Fascia boards were the task this weekend. Jewels arrived home late Friday after being gone most of the week on business. Saturday was tagged as the day to start and (hopefully) complete the fascia. We woke to wet conditions. Fortunately, the hard rain stopped by mid morning, but the mud was horrible (the electricians made a muddy mess last weekend and the sun has not shone in the area for days). By the end of the day Jewels, Andy and Bill were exhausted. Items completed: sawed the soffit boards by an inch (the entire perimeter of the house), installed Jewels’ new fangled soffit vent on all but bedroom side, installed Hardie Board fascia on half of the back and utility side. Work began again bright and early Sunday morning. The sun was out ALL DAY!!! Jewels completed the soffit vent installation and front fascia. The work stopped mid afternoon so Jewels could clean up, pack and go to the airport for another week long business trip. We were hoping to have the new roof put on at the end of this week, but will put it off a few days. The fascia boards have to be installed before the roof.
