A work in progress...

For the love of patio refinishing, I tell ya!  Man, this thing has really been a project.  We started back in June or July with this purchase of a patio set in need of much love.  Since then it's been my job to take apart, sand, glue, sand, fill and ultimately stain.  Every.  Single.  Piece.  Yep - Brandy shall be named sander, and Drew shall be named part-time "taker-aparter".  You know, for when I can no longer feel my hands. 

And now that I have a full time job (no, not as a sander - though I should consider it) this project has taken on a new deadline.   The original deal was to have the whole thing done by the end of summer.  And that didn't happen - a few too many days of sniffing stain repeatedly will do that to you.  And now the deadline is to have the table sanded (all the other pieces are done) by late fall and then if we have a nice day in early winter that's warm enough we'll stain it.  For now we're pretty proud of it - of course the finale is really the table top.  And it's the hardest piece, of course!  Wanna check out our progress?
