We were u p bright and early and made our first stop at Norm's. What's a meal out if not breakfast at Norm's?! Then we were off to Do-It-Best for deck stain. We chose Chestnut Brown.
This color is darker than I normally would be drawn to, but it matches the existing brown coloring already on the cabin and it certainly allows for the cabin to blend into its surroundings, rather than stick out like a sore thumb. We bought three gallons and a sprayer. Once back and with the work underway, we worked for nearly eight hours - with breaks for lunch, re-hydrating and a couple of short neighbor visits.
Carlo reaching the high stuff!
We were only half way finished with the rails when we stopped for the night. We grilled burgers at 8:30 pm and I would like to add that as tired as we were, we weren't too tired to eat them - and they were d-e-l-i-c-i-o-u-s!
Time for a good night of rest so there is energy to finish staining the deck in the morning!
