This week was all about prepping and painting the north side of the lodge. This is a big project. So Joel started out by bleaching the top section and then painting it:
Then came the fun part. A LOT of the wood on the bottom section was rotten, as in so rotten a paintbrush would go right through it. So after he tore out all the bad stuff it looked like this:
NOT a fun project! But it sure looks nice now! He also made a new shutter for the window and stained it.
And he made new flashing for under the windows like he did on the front to keep the moisture from dripping down again and took down and put the gutter back up so it's straight now. 
Now it's ready for more paint! Unfortunately when he caught a ride to Dangriga yesterday to get paint they were out. They said several other people were painting their house the same color. Guess we started a trend ;-)
Sage and I are always doing little projects, this week we made a path the the orange cabana where there was none before. We also planted some trees and things that were in plastic pots and replanted some of the nicer pots with flowers. It's fun to make things look pretty :)
