the old and the new

I think I have put up this photo of the front of the house in its old color. But just as a refresher, here it is.

Here it is in its new color.

Likewise, here's a picture of the back before painting . . .

Half done . .

Finished (except for putting the Tejas back on the overhangs that have to be rebuilt, putting the big plants back on the landing where they belong, and folding up and storing the ladders!)


What's left? The "interior" exterior walls, those walls between the two wings of the house that are not technically "indoors." Fernando will get to those on Tuesday and hopes to be all done on Wednesday. We are heading up to Guadalajara and Tlaquepaque Wednesday morning for three days. It will be all put back together by the time we get back on Saturday.
