The weather was so nice today I felt it would be a shame to waste it. It could have been a Top 10 Day if the temperature hadn't soared into the 80s. With no breeze, those low 80s--in the sun--felt more like 90s. In any event, this morning's sunshine was more than enough to dry out the deck rails and balusters on the west side of the house, especially since much of it was on the inside under the covered porch. It took me a little over 4 hours to finish the staining there. That leaves only the small porch at the front door which shouldn't take more than 2 hours to complete. I should be able to do that before noon tomorrow.

Terry and I have been trying to squeeze in a quick trip up to the Bolt Hole so we can do an inventory of what's in the trailer and what's available in the cabin for our Alaskan trip. If I can get the staining done in the morning, we could leave after lunch and be back late Saturday. (Got to be home on Sunday so she can watch the final two hours of Lost.) Even if the grass needs cutting--and I will only do the big rectangular section on the west of the cabin and in front of the barn and garage--I can do that while she's going though the closets.
19 days to go!

Deck staining... oh we so need to do that here. There are a few surfaces that need it badly. The only leetle issue is time. Oh well.
Good luck! Hope it goes smoothly.
