Power-washing the House

Tony had to work this weekend so I took this opportunity to work on the house.  The thing that I wanted to tackle was the one outside wall of our house.  I don't think it had been cleaned in YEARS.  Once again, my dad came to the rescue and he let me borrow his power-washer.  It made a huge improvement.

Much cleaner!

I need to figure out how to clean the brick on the front of the house.  The water alone wasn't enough.  Dish soap?  Bleach?  Any ideas??
