Huffington House and Birthday Dinner

Worked at the Huffington House, and then we headed into Bellmead, for a Birthday Dinner at Heitmiller Steak House.
 Siding is coming off
 It is a dirty job, all the Mud Dauber dirt is loaded behind each strip of siding,
and the Spiders, Hornets are dormant, but still present.
Yucky!!
