Painting Progress


Well, we haven't done much to the house lately as our financial resources have slowed...but, Ryan has done some work on the trim around the garage and windows.

We picked out a nice, dark green color to paint the trim and windows (that will look better when we repaint the house a darker color).

Here are a few photos:

Ryan had to scrape off several layers of old paint in order to get down to the wood.







He got a lot of paint flecks on his face during this process.


The color is called "Gondola Ride."



After scraping, one coat of primer, and two coats of paint. It's very bright-looking in the bright sun, but we like it.
