Yesterday Norma took the girls shopping so I used the time to finish staining the benches. They look pretty good if I must say so myself! They are very heavy and it takes three people to lift them so they will not be moving very often but that also means they will not be walking down the driveway either.
Today is Norma's birthday so we will be able to sit around a fire tonight. Our neighbour Pauline and the girls baked a cake for Norma yesterday which we all enjoyed last night after a feed of fish and chips down on the dock. It was a very pleasant evening.
Happy Birthday Norma! What a nice place for a birthday drink. We'll raise a toast to you tonight.
ReplyDeleteGood job on the benches, Mr Carpenter-pants! Or MRS. Carpenter-pants... not sure who actually did all the work :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Kelsi, but it was actually Brooks and Linda who did 90% of the work. My job was running the new saw cutting the pieces.
ReplyDeleteI see shadows in your pictures. Don't tell me summer has started to arrive on the West Coast?
ReplyDeleteHAPPY BIRTHDAY NORMA!
ReplyDeleteVery nice. Also agree that being heavy will keep[ the benches where they belong - on your patio over someone else.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Norma!
