Monday - Progress?

Back in civilization, the garage was filled with bead board sheathing for the cabin roof overhangs, freshly painted with a not-so-subtle semi-transparent redwood stain. But a hard freeze was called for and I really didn't want to scrape the windshields in the morning, so I needed to make room for the car in the garage. So last night, I cut up the first board and stacked the others to make room to drive in.

Lunch today I took off for an hour or so and took the cut board over to the woods, hauled it up to the loft and put it in place on the southeast corner. Perfect fit!

New Question: Does this strikingly red overhang really go well with the "Favorite Foresty Green" of the rafter? In some ways, it's just like my dog: either quite handsome or else ridiculous looking; I'm not sure which. Perhaps time will tell.
