Earlier this week, Kathie and I finished staining the stairs to the dock to match the stain we had applied to the upper house deck. The next day, we stained the lower deck and the support posts. Yesterday, we stained the end of the house that has the screened porch. Then help arrived. Travis and Rachel came to stay with us for a few days, knowing that part of the deal was assistance with staining the house and garage in exchange for a few days in the woods. Today, we finished the lake side of the house (both levels) and the woods side of the house, as well as most of the garage. All we have left is the peak of one end of the garage and the southwest end of the house, which we will surely have done by noon tomorrow. Kathie and I are just amazed at the progess we have made in such short time, and we love the results. We hope you will agree, although maybe this photo won't be enough and you will have to come for a visit (or another visit) to really appreciate the change. We think of the color as a kind of Lincoln Log brownish red. Please do come for a visit or another visit (in spite of what the Sawyer County Record says about Gus and our welcoming messages).
