How long does it take to paint a house?

The painters came yesterday morning before 0600, that's 6 a.m. and began power washing the house!  We knew they were coming but did they have to come that early??  I guess in this AZ heat it's better to get started early.  Two of my grandsons were having an over night and Aidan who is 11 said as the guys wrapped plastic sheeting around the windows and doors..."we're getting fumagated!"  Out of the mouths of babes.  It is pretty funny to see windows and doors taped shut from the inside, makes it diffuicult to see out.  I'm going to learn to input pictures one of these days and then you'll really see what I've been up to.  :)  Happy day everyone!
