Post: Back to normal and Fall
    Posted by: Cal-Kid on 9/16/15

    Glad the board is approaching normal again! WHEW rough
    couple of weeks.

    After a heat wave last week all of a sudden it is cool and
    nice and maybe even going to rain. I noticed one of my maple
    trees turning really pretty red. Kind of early for Calif.

    The 2nd house remodel had more problems, dry rot so I
    replaced the entire east side, new windows, fire damage
    lap siding with new pine, and new T-11 siding, new trim,
    repaired the foundation vent openings. Over a 103 degrees a
    couple of days. Really too hot and too much. At least it was
    on the shady side of the house. Yesterday was a caulk day
    filling any gaps or holes or nail dents. Today is a paint
    day doing the grooves on the vertical siding.

    The new vinyl E-glass windows are so nice. I have replaced
    six out of eight windows. I had to reframe the wall on a
    couple of them as the fire remodel was poorly done.

    That is all behind me now, just down to the last lap of the
    mile run and is all good now!

    Retirement is good
    Wife is now getting used to retirement
