Warm Days and No Rain


For one day, it was finally warm, and not raining. So I had a chance to start doing some painting around here. I started with the front storm door. For me there is something very rewarding about a fresh new coat of paint, on anything. Before I painted the door and the screen, I took the solid brass mail slot off the door, and used a wire wheel and Brasso on it, and brought it back to life, from the dull brown that it was in its oxidized state. Doesn't it look wonderful all shined up and laquered? Good for the soul, this work of making things look brand new!
