This weekend we also started

This weekend we also started our chimney resurection program. As part of my A/C overhaul, I have had more insulation added to my attic and need to to plug the hole in the chimney to prevent racoons from getting into my attick and trampling down the insulation.

When I got on the roof, I discovered that a huge piece of siding was missing from the chimney! Actually three of the sides of the chimney were kinda rotting away and I decided to replace these as well. So we picked up siding in Jennifer's P.T. Cruiser (I knew the car would be good for something) and started dismantling parts of the chimney siding. I went a bit overboard and now I'll need to get just a little more siding (unfortunatelly, it only comes in 16 foot pieces). So I'll end up with 14' of useless siding (along with most of a roll of roofing felt) and I didn't even manage to use the chimney project as a powertool purchase justification.
