I like it, it looks beachy.

Nice color!! Your garden looks great too.

Looks like a lot of work, and does look nice!

OH I was going to say I do not think you need to paint in the cracks?? It looks fine:)

I like it. You've done so much work. You need to get yourself a lawnchair and sit down out there and relax for a while.

Linda, I wish I could. I've got so many weeds to pull it's not even funny. Alex helped me get the old grill out of the backyard (that was under the deck) and a plastic lattice thing that was around the old heatpump yesterday, but that whole area needs cleaned up. Not to mention the rest of the yard, front and back.

Lunchlady, it's hard to see but the brown part of the wood in the cracks shows up more in person than it does in the picture.

I can't wait to get rid of the pool and hottub. I've gotten two calls on the pool. One is coming to look at it tomorrow and a lady just called and said she would take it if the other person doesn't. She has the same size pool but needs parts and another liner.

Hot tub is called for once the pool is outta there.

Nice, nice, nice. I love the color!! I see tomatoes in your garden. What else do you have?

Patti,

okra, watermelon, cantaloupe, squash, mini pumpkins, Heavenly Blue morning glories, and marigolds. Birds were in a mound rolling around right after I planted the seed so nothing ever came up there, I didn't mark anything so I don't know what was planted there. Beans never came up so I replanted with mini pumpkin seed.

I like it Kathleen..Looks great!

I love color in places you don't expect it!

Your garden is coming along well!

It looks really good but looks like lots of work.

I just put the second coat on and my back is killing me. I can't imagine having to do the entire deck! I was going to do it before I decided to sell everything.

Are you able to roll the paint on that deck or are you having to brush it on? I like the color. I planted blue morning glories once and they wouldn't grow for me. I only have the pink and I just love them. But I did want some blue ones!

Vannie, I used a roller for most of it, except around the edge near the sunroom, had to use a small brush and of course in the cracks. The roller was a smaller "stain roller" that doesn't leave fuzz behind.

I love morning glories and have grown the blue ones before. I didn't cut and soak them overnight, though, like I normally do so that may be why so few germinated? I have reseeding purple ones that the previous owner had planted, they come back every year. Then there's the white weed ones I'm trying to erradicate from the front and back yards. Arghghhhh!

Pretty paint job and a neat garden. If grocery prices keep rising - we're ALL gonna be gardeners before long, aren't we? (Ya Ya, who has three tomato in a huge tub on my deck.) Wanted to buy enough from the farmers market to can some Rotel this year but probably won't.

You lucked out at HD. The color looks appealing to my eye at least! Once you get rid of all that STUFF, your yard is going to be BIG!

It's all looking great, Kath, I love that color! It's really a verdigris green, which suits me fine. What's it called on the can?

Flamingo, it's called Balsam Pine and is a Cabot deck stain, and the paint "chip" looked like Crayola Crayon "forest green". Totally different color than what I thought it would be.
