rain

good thing that roof is on there, because the rain is here in seattle. its been raining unusually hard for september the past few days. anyway, the roof is doing its job, and just in time. the next door neighbor said its a little loud when the rain beats down on it. oh well. turn up your tv. if he doesn't like that, he wont like the siding much...
we're going with metal siding from about half way up and wood on the bottom half. the metal is a dark grey corrugated and it should look beautiful in contrast to the wood. the wood is an open joint rainscreen system. i'm pretty excited to get it up there and see what it all looks like. i'm hoping to hire out the top half to keep myself off of the ladder, and do the bottom myself. we'll see.
