Now that the decking has been laid, it was time to strip the vinyl siding.
.
.
This isn’t as easy as it sounds when the people who put it on decades ago used nails as long as your arm.

Sometimes finesse is required…
Sometimes brute force.

After the siding was removed?
.
.
The soffit had to come down.
.
.
That was easier, but still awkward.
.

It’s amazing how much dirt gets up under there, especially when you live across the street from a farmer who’s always plowing his fields on windy days .

White on one side, brown on the other.
.
.
Soffit.
.
.
No soffit.
.

I have no idea what this is all about.
It’s not mold, just black spray paint.
