Here's another pic for you Heather! Yes, Peter is up in high places again!
Somehow those trim boards needed another coat of stain. So after getting a 24' extension ladder, last night Peter climbed up and gave them that final coat. He had to make use of the truck box, mind you, along with the painter's extension pole and small roller to reach the top of the tallest trim board. But it worked! Most of the boards were reachable by him standing on the lower overhang roof. My only task in all of this (besides praying of course) was to stand in the truck box and hold the ladder steady. The things we find ourselves doing - and at our age yet!
This morning is was a real treat to come to work and see the building look finished on the outside. One more little thing. Sorry Heather - that's up high too! There needs to be a trim board added to the top of the windows upstairs outside to create a bit of a crown mold effect. This will be fully stained before being installed!
We also got our "gopher fence" built. Hopefully this will be a very temporary thing. Otherwise we will need to build something a bit more permanent. We will cross that track when we get to it!
