Experimenting in paint

Phase three our our property development is under way!

That sounds pretentious!  We really just have a corner lot on a common street in small town Saskatchewan.  Each year we try to improve the house or yard.  Not unlike a number of our neighbours.

Three years ago we moved here.  The first year we completed phase one — upstairs renovations including flooring, painting, kitchen counter replacement and draperies.  Phase two, year two, was the basement’s turn with flooring, painting and heating duct repair.

This year?  Phase three has begun.  We have replaced eavestroughing (outsourced to a reliable contractor).  Now we are painting window and door frames. 

Today was the first window and door frame.  The colour is white — semi-gloss latex paint.  As we stood back basking in the afternoon sun, we could have used sunglasses.  The look is stunning and blinding.  Only nine more to go!

And the snow falls when??
