Photo Update: April 9

We've had a lot of rain and thunderstorms lately, so the brick laying progress has been slow going.

Scott and I were shocked when we first saw the bricks. We had expected them to be more brownish in colour as opposed to the peachy-taupe colour they looked at the site.

Ron assured us that the orange hue is normal for new, wet, clay bricks, and that it will lighten into a browner-sandy finish once they are on and dried.

We were still a little skeptical, but took his word for it. Today it was drier outside and I noticed that once the bricks were actually on the house they did look a lot better. I hope it all comes together when it's done.
