Veterans Day / Paint and Painting
Recently when going through papers
at moms I found my dad's service
record and papers.
Thank you for your service
Dad. Dad joined the Navy at
a very young age, when
there was not a age restriction.
I was told that Dad joined
at 14. Ran away from home and
joined. I did not check the
enlistment date to be sure before
giving them to my brother but
I do know it was between 14
and 16.
Thank you to all the
Vets out there.
The barn where Misfire stays is
on the property of a guy I used
to date. We remained friends.
His new girlfriend and I have
been talking about needing
to paint the barn before putting
the word out to get more folks
there. The talk also came up that
we could do outside each stall
a different color. I have been waiting
for the inside to be pressure washed
and some wood replaced but I
personally got tired of waiting so
I asked Chris if he cared if I painted
Misfires a certain color. He did not care.
This is a shot of the colors
it took to get the color I wanted.
Pretty cool....
Here is a shot of the barn
before we started painting.
Renee thought that maybe
we should paint all the doors
the color I brought over and the
rest the stain color she picked out.
It's bold.
And yes, my color choice
was PURPLE!
And colorful.
But it looks so much
cleaner and bright.
The top portion will also be the stain
color. The above door had a big hook
on it but I could not get it off so I painted
around it. The renter at Chris other house
came down and took it off, so I
will have to go back and paint that
white spot. I have 4.5 doors to go!
I am also going to purchase
new hooks for the doors.
I will do more painting
in the morning when I go let
Misfire out in the morning.

I'm guessing that Misfire is most happy with the new digs.
Have a fabulous day and Veteran's Day, Pam. ♥
Cool color....
😊🔥😊
A big thank you to your dad for his service.
I think the purple door looks fine :)
All the best Jan
