Post Vacation Projects!

We returned from our vacation on a Thursday afternoon, so what did we do from Friday through the extended holiday (Memorial Day) weekend?
Well, we installed five new sections of fence in the backyard as a starter.

Then, we took out the awning from the attic and installed it over the 2nd floor windows, so that the sun wouldn't shine in directly and superheat the upstairs.

Then, we went to a nursery (our 2nd in four days) and bought azaelas for the backyard, green pepper plants for Rob's herb garden, and hanging flowers for the front porch. We even replaced the flag out front with the Maryland flag.

Tom painted the garage to match the new front door we had installed for us a couple of months ago. Now the house looks more uniform.

Finally, while Rob did laundry, etc. inside, Tom painted the front sections of the fence to match the house. Oh, we still had one more day to go, too...
