Well I'm glad to know I just didn't totally miss this (which would have been entirely possible). Even though it won't be at your pond I'd love to see photos of the siding with the cedar shake look.

Now the two of you (Eddie and Sunil) have got me wondering. My wife and I drove up to Tahoe last year and saw a bunch of lake side houses that appeared to be wood. I though at the time if this is wood siding it this must be (1) an extreme fire danger and (2) a real maintenance issue. I'll bet that they used this process above.

Dang this bean counter is learning new tricks.
