Power Washing

We had grand plans for the decks, but now that we are down to the end (and out of money) we are realizing that there are things we just aren't going to be able to do. One of those is painting the decks. I was content to just leave them, but Eduardo decided to power washed them. Of course he picked a cold dreary day to do it too. So while I was warm and dry inside, he was out in the cloudy cold, sopping wet right down to his socks slowly scraping the grime and mold off the planks. It was really amazing how well the power washer worked to clean the wood. It looked almost new by the time he was done! It took a few days for him to get it all done, (plus he sealed it with sealer we got for free on the side of the road), but it made a world of difference. Take a look!

I helped for 2 seconds.

Cleaned deck!

Eduardo hard at work.

And getting soaked in the process.

But look at the difference!
