8/25 - 8/27
It has been so nice out the last few days! I had to carve out some tree house time! Here is a quick pic inventory of what has been accomplished.
Finally began work on siding the missing, upper portions of the exterior. I had to install a piece of metal flashing, a drip rail, between the lower and upper pieces of siding. It's very visible in this pic. This type of flashing was ultimately installed all around the perimeter of the house. Here is the section above the door completely sided!:
In one last dash for the "dry-in", I completed all cuts and death defying, tipsy ladder installation of all siding! We are now officially "Dried-In". She is not the prettiest just yet, but she'll take weather until I can get around to trimming out the exterior corners & highly exposed siding seams. Then it will be on to deck railing and exterior painting. This will set the stage for turning my sights to completing the interior!

Before I could install siding on the triangular openings, I had to build out "scabs" of wood for the sole purpose of providing a nail backing to the siding installation. Angles, sawing, blah, blah, angles, sawing...:
For a brief reprieve from all the carpentry, I installed a door handle and a keypad dead bolt. Beep, Borp, Boop, Beep!:
