First Coat

When one doesn't feel like doing a job, one can always sub-contract it out! I hired my niece to help me paint the garage.





























I was very impressed with how steady she worked. She painted for the entire 8 hours we agreed upon with a short break for lunch, and she did high quality work. I'm quite pleased with the end result. I've still got to put another coat of primer on, then a coat of enamel. Three sides are done, but I hadn't cleaned off the back of the garage in time to paint.

It was nice to get a visit from my sister and my other niece too. My sister read under the trees while my niece watched DVD's on her portable DVD player. THAT was an amazing device...Great color, crisp picture, and clear sound on something a 10 year old carries around. We are a rich country indeed.
