Laborious Labor Day

As typical of our long Holiday weekends we tackled yet another UN-predictable house project. Our plan was to simply power wash, strip our deck and then stain. After 3-4 hours into the washing the worst was confirmed, we were dealing with about 4 layers of paint instead of one. I guess that is why all those DIYer's say budget for the worst scenario. The man of the house did 99.9% of all the weekend's work. I was enlisted for an emergency trip to Lowes and to tape off the house. Baring a couple of touch-ups it looks fantastic. I will post a picture soon.
-PS we need patio furniture, anyone want to give us some?
