Back in the Forward-Backstep Cycle

Organizing furniture for House 3
As I was contemplating making great progress on House 3's final assembly today, I realized that I'd forgotten the brick on House 2. Sigh. Doing brick is a pain and among my least favorite parts of this, so that didn't get done today; maybe later in the week.

Upon examination, House 3 doesn't have all its trim, and the roof gables weren't installed. It took about an hour to FIND the gables that I'd carefully put in a very, very safe place. Why they weren't with the rest of the house in its box is a mystery. (Dumbheadedness on my part is the answer, probably.) By the end of the day, the gables were dressed and glued in, and the rest of the house trim was coming right along.

Otherwise, furnishing the first floor and gluing on the second floor were the  major accomplishments of the day. Tomorrow, more brick (yuck) and second floor furnishings, and then, finally, walls for House 3.
