Decided To Be Productive Today
yup i sure did... since it was fairly warmer out today i decided to take care of an eyesore thats been bugging me since fall came around.. i went outside and after finishing up part of a brake job i started last weekend... i went ahead and sanded down the pole on the front porch... tomorrow and the rest of the weekends suppose to be in the 60's so itll be perfect for painting..
but figured id share some progress with yall...
imagine if you will the whole pole like this... (in some places worse)
paints been peeling and chipping for awhile and has been a couple yrs since it was last painted...
and how it looks now that its sanded and waiting for tomorrow...
and ill toss in a picture of me.. (btw that jacket was clean and brightly black before i started..)
ill get painted pics up later when i get it painted and has had time to set...

very nice job. It was nice today so I painted a room and measured for carpet. and got way lost coming back from Louisville. Made me realize sometimes its okay to get lost on back country roads.
I have some wrought iron to paint (lots of it) you seem to be a good (ahem) painter! lol
