Mike Hammerquist shares his update from Patterson Park in Redmond:

It was quite a thrill seeing the Sheetrock delivery on Weds. The hangers started on Thursday and should be done on Tuesday. On Wednesday we will scrap out and corner bead, with taping to start on Thursday.

Siding continues, 99% overall complete. We should have the last piece on this week. Caulking and painting made good progress this week. The southern end of the building is fully painted from the ground to the roof and the towers/ plank setup has been moved to the other end. The last soffit was finished on Saturday. We will build decks after we finish the painting above them.

Work this week will include painting, caulking, some siding, decks and site maintenance.
