Stonework II & Siding I

The masons have moved their operation around front and taken over our parking lot as they get started on the rock walls around the driveway.
This is the front of the garage stonework. These guys do a beautiful job.
We started siding in early July. Above, we've finished the living room walls using the scissor lift. It was pretty handy. We had room for sawhorses, a plank workbench and two mini-tablesaws. All the comforts of home.
After the "easy part" we got to scramble our way up top and tackle the chimney. You can see we finished one of them in this picture. The other chimney mercifully was removed, so we didn't have to side it. One was enough.
Another relatively easy wall — the north side of the house. Then it was around the corner to another fussy wall, the two-story storage shed that supports both decks and the main roof hip rafter.
