Our Staining Job Makes Its Debut

After the endurance test of staining half of the cedar planks pruned from the Northwest Peninsula of the state of Washington, we can now take a step of two back and watch the guys go to work, not to mention admire our own.

The garage is almost a garage now, needing only lights a door and opener as well as some hardware.

But it came out terrific don't you think? We wanted it to blend in with the surrounding woods and believe that we achieved our goal.

And here is the beginning of the band course that will give the house more of a horizontal feel.

The guys have laid out the height that the stone will rise.

And if you look very closely you can see that the stone will wrap around the back corner of the house, but the rest of the wall will be the dark walnut stained cedar.
