The castle has seen some drastic, necessary and positive improvements during the past year.
The exterior renovations included removal of the awnings, parging the chimney, painting the stucco (thanks dad) and wood siding, restoring two rose bushes and adding another, expanding the front flower bed from 12" to a5' kidney shaped bed with a stepping stone pathway meandering beside it. The front door is often mistaken for a new wood door but is a steel door painted with Potter's Clay colour. We also have time to water the lawn. The porch will be completed in August -stay tuned.
At the rear, a new lower deck was added off the covered porch. Here are the contractors!
A contractor from back home also helped us out.
In early July, we were able to enjoy our labours and new lounge furniture with our dear friends Michael and Deani and their children (that's Gideon not Kenton:)
