Still in Whitecourt - Proud Pap

I actually went along one day when Laurie could not come to help - I didn't really count on going on a shaky scaffold, but that is what happened - Pap was busy at the front entrance and did the arch underside - well that was quite a job b/c he had to do everything upside - all I did was clean out the grout afterwards. I am not that great on heights, but by the end of the day - I sure was braver.
Pap did the chimney on top in a real cool way, don't you think?


This is the outside fireplace on the deck - it is a wood fireplace. There are heaters suspended from the ceiling so they can sit out on the deck in the winter.


This is a back view of the house, an incredible amount of rock.


This is also the back from the side view. The job took them 16 days to do this job, I was so proud of them. I will post pictures of the front of the house soon!! They are finished, but of course didn't have the camera along.

Wow Pap..I am sure proud of you! What a great job you did and at your age still climbing up on scaffolding. That's my Pap, he knows how to do a good job. Way to go Mom! I know that I would be a little shaky being up so high. Looks great.Love you Lots.
