Thumbs up What a productive day:

Fixed the weed whip: check
Power washed the deck(s) check
Took care of the moss,lichen, mold issue: check
weed whipped dog mountain: check
mowed dog mountain: check
Weed whip around pond: check
Weed whip around fire pit: check
played with kids: check
Finish 12 pack: check



FYI: Timbertech synthetic decks are NOT what the are cracked up to be they are better on the feel but powerwashing them is a friggin shore but its better than stain.

To do:

Kill Moss=Mold on barn roof, I have to figure that one out I need some serious projectile to get the killer up there.

Far more productive than mine was. I spent the good part of the day shopping for dishwashers. Whoopty freakin' doo!

I was supposed to:

Winterize the pool: Nope
Clean out the spot for the boat and trailer for the winter: Nope
Empty out the shed: Nope
Split some firewood: Nope

I did get some beer and football watching in though.

,,,It's almost 8am, I should be at work. Instead I'm typing here with AM coffee and breakfast bar. F-work..

I drove all the way to Jacksonville yesterday morning to do a job and couldn't get access to the site. Oh well I get paid anyway.

Figured out why the dozer was puking hydraulic fluid on Friday evening then sat up late on the porch with Dad, drinking whiskey and telling lies to each other. Finished up Sunday by replacing a couple of leaking hydraulic lines on the dozer and adjusting the brakes. Didn't get squat done on the cabin tho.

Howi -- is your mold problem due to excessive shade? I have that problem at my house, and I dread having to thin out the two huge trees that are causing the problem. Need to let the old house dry out better after a rain, though.
