Two Days of Scrubbing

This week, Dave decided to tackle staining our play set.  It has been several years since he last stained it.  To prepare it, he had to clean all the wood.  It ended up being a huge job.  About 15 hours of elbow work.  He didn't request any help because he was working with an acid substance.  So we all just looked on and admired his perseverance.  At about 3:30 p.m this afternoon, we heard a shout of "Hallelujah".  It was Dave shouting his exuberance at finishing the muscle aching work.  Not only did he burn calories from the his work horse effort, but he chose not to stop for meals. Stopping would mean having to clean up and then get messy again.  So I'm sure he shed a couple of pounds over the last few days.  Now onto the staining!
