With work being so crazy recently this "work" was actually pretty relaxing:
Here's the upper downspout...this one empties onto the kitchen roof. Check out the cool straps we found to secure it to the house. The old one wasn't attached at all and was a strong wind away from taking someone's head off.
Here you can see what we have planned... We're installing a rain barrel to catch the rain from our roof for the garden, well the garden we'll have someday. We built the base for the barrel from scrap 2x6's we had laying around. The barrel itself we picked up for $10...it's an olive barrel and still smells like them.
Sarah working hard.

And here's the rain barrel installed. My project for tomorrow will be to put on a spigot and overflow. We also finished painting the triple window...by the way, triple windows are a HUGE pain to paint.
