After Joanna's power washing last month, she jumped in to help me with the staining this month to meet our deadline of August 31. We had a weekend-long scramble, but are thrilled with the results and suddenly feel like the back deck is a highlight, not an eyesore.
The bad news: despite a gritty, 11th-hour effort -- a phrase I fear may be repeated many times in the course of this adventure -- my grill storage/prep station remains incomplete.
I even threw a highly dangerous power tool in Ace's hands and told him to start ripping boards (which he did with wild abandon), but couldn't get it done. We have a long weekend coming up, so I really shouldn't have an excuse not to wrap it up in the next few days. Stay tuned.
