The house made of butter

The Donnelly Brothers were back at the house today to put the final coat of stucco on the house. As we noted earlier, we decided to change the color of the house. The trim is a dark green (almost brown) and the stucco is a light yellow (called “wheat”). When it goes on fresh it actually looks like sweet cream butter. The color will darken a little as it cures. They’ll finish the job tomorrow.
