    Good morning everyone. One last week of work and the Spring Break. Busy with report cards which students will get right before the break. Mild outside and not raining for our walk this morning. We got clothes dry on the line yesterday and we tackled taking the blackberry vines in the yard. I don't mind that the property below has lots but they don't over well when they encroach on the yard. Crocus are blooming and snowdrops. Roses are putting out new leaves and my rhubarb that we moved last fall is showing leaves. Spring is on the way.

    Haven't timed myself, but I'd say there's the equivalent of almost a full days work in.

    Kinda relieved it's done.

    Hey Trinity, I’m on my phone so don’t have a very big screen. Tell me what that is you’ve been working on. Looks interesting.

    Woodburnt image of several landmarks in town peeping out of the fog and rain with bits of fun set shining through. A gift for mom.

    She gave me a canvas as one of my gifts for Christmas , so I'll have to find time to paint that. Maybe a local scene from my area....

    What? 1 full sheet installed will be $160? Wow. That's somebody trying to stick it to the insurance company. You can do unfinished car siding for less than that! Materials for 32 sq ft is roughly $60. That leaves lots of room for labor and finishing.

    I agree bocefus78, no that was not insurance price.. I agree you got to pay professionals a price for quality.. A 4 x 8 here is 13 dollars sheet white board. I always figured when in game 15 years ago, that x 5 was fair..
