I Have a Patio

Today I woke up to heavy cloud cover.

I had to go to Home Depot and Wally world. At HD I
needed deck paint and touch up paint for inside. I also
need to get 10ft of gutter to  put under the sewer hose.
All they had was aluminum which would have worked if
they could have cut it down into 5ft sections to fit in the
car. So I will try Lowe's tomorrow.

As I pulled up at the trailer Ron, was finishing another job
and said he would come and build the platform for the
patio. 

I took Fred for a walk and then put up grocery's. It was
thundering and the sky was really dark. We figured Ron
would get rained out on this project. But Ron finished
just as the rain came. Tomorrow he will put on another
coat of paint. Then I can put things together.

This first picture was taken at dawn yesterday


Sorry Ron couldn't resist


The gravel will be put back around the patio after Ron does the second coat of paint.
We really got hit with the storm after
 these pictures were taken. Will post more
pictures tomorrow.

  1. The picture of Ron should have been placed last in the style Judy uses.

  2. Hello John,
    I thought about it but didn't want to copy her style. :) she seems to have fun with it and I love seeing her latest.

    Thanks for stopping by.

  3. Patio is looking great, JoJo. A number of people have been struck (several killed) by lightning around here, so tell Ron to get in when it starts. You wear me out--you're always so busy! Pats to Fred. :)

  4. Hello Nancy and Jack,

    I hope next summer I can fit my wicker chairs in the car and bring them up. I love sitting outside.
    I'm not that busy it's everyone around me. :) I just take the pictures.

    Thanks for stopping by

  5. Nothing wrong with being the supervisor! Someone has to do it!

    Besides, we need all the pictures! Looks like it's coming right along!

  6. Hello Jim,

    I know who would take pictures? And of course I have to supervise. :)
    I can't wait for it to be finished.

    So glad you stopped by today. Thanks
