Done Painting!

The house is all painted up, the rotten boards have been replaced, the doors are painted, the entablature over the front door has been installed and we have new front porch lights and mailbox. Looking better all the time. The color is Pier.

Here are the final primer pics. We've had lots of rotten boards replaced. Found bats in one of the walls...
