Early August we caught up on some yellow painting.  Next we take on the wall to the right...

 

Day One Rain Delay

 

 

Doing a little research on iphone
under cover of rain

One way to stay dry is to bring the cover with you.  This is original spot lightcover.

We did manage to get some paint on the building in spite of the rain...

   

Day Two

   

Looks like first coat of stripes are done.

Top half of yellow from above, bottom half we use long poles.

   

Painting coat of white. Hard work!

Much progress, saving most of the yellow for the afternoon.

   

Winding down for the day.

Progress- from the doorway opening almost to the end.

   

Panorama of the painted areas, a bit more than half way around.

 

Still much to be done!
