Tuesday's progress

Since House 1 is advancing so well, and yesterday was so pleasing, it seemed time to bring the others along a bit more. The roof for House 2 got one more fairly large roof plane shingled (at some cost to my left hand; I must have been pressing too hard while holding strips to measure or something, as I've got a big hurt on the index finger).

Houses 2 and 3 are painted, though not without some serious pain with the color. Originally, I was only going to do House 2, but the color matching was such an ordeal that, once I got something close enough, I figured I'd better do both at the same time. It's a mystery why the color is so difficult this time, but at least the main part of that job is now behind me. House 3's paint job may need a bit of touching up here and there, and it's almost guaranteed that there's something or other I've forgotten to paint--but I saved some in the refrigerator. So there!
