Remodel day 42: Facelift begins

Today, we did a few projects. My "little" side project of putting in a new locking mailbox took a lot more time and effort than I anticipated. Our neighbor helped Brandon drive in the new post. It looks much better in front of the house rather than hanging off the fence.

We ripped off the last of the old siding to prep for the week! It's exciting to see the changes, but uncovering old walls can be a bit scary... Outside of the guest bath (the room where we had been planning to do the least amount of work), we found quite a bit of water damage to the exterior wall. We may need to adjust our plans for purchases and work if the existing tile wall needs to go. It's all part of the process...

Stay tuned.
