it’s supposed to be windy and rainy all day today, with the chance of snow overnight… 😒

so, in spite of the rain, i pressure washed the rest of the deck anyway, because if it’s going to snow, who knows when i’ll be able to finish it.

i started around 10:00 am or so, and finished about 4:00 pm. but now it’s done, and who cares if it snows.

the friend with the deck sander, who is a professional house painter, came over to check the nails, to make sure they don’t need knocking in before he starts with the sander. in his professional opinion, the deck was not stained, but hasHAD an impressive collection of what he referred to as “common deck slime”… which would explain why it was so slippery.
