Week 41 - Oregon City, Oregon - October 10 - 16, 2022

Finally, finally, this week I began to paint toe shed where we keep the Kubota and the Gravely mower.  Travis and others built the shed years ago - maybe Travis was 17 and taking a construction class at the high school.  He built it...yes...but we had to replace to roof last year because it was sagging and the exterior was never painted.  No, not exactly, one side was painted and the south side was left as natural plywood.

The south side was really hard to do because the surface was so weathered and dry that the white primer was just sucked into the wood.

come Saturday, I'd had it with just just using a ladder.  My legs couldn't stand it anymore.  So, with Val's held, we borrowed Dixie Jones scaffolding.  It was so much easier to paint - not easy to get up to the platforms, however.

I finished the south side with one coat of brown and then signed our names to the west side.

What else did we do this week.  

Watched the last of the January 6th Select committee's meeting.  Such an awful man was/is donald j trump.   I can only hope he can't/won't run in 2024.

Also had the first meeting with the Activity Day children.  We made a long list of the activities we want to do.
