Saturday 9-11-04

This morning I loaded up the truck with stuff we would need at the house.  Garage door hardware and openers, plumbing stuff for Jeff, etc.

I then went to Ace Hardware and bought some cleaning stuff for the front door, a broom, concrete sealant, etc.

I got to the house and we started cleaning the garage.  We then went out front and started working on taking apart the forms for the driveway and dad did some back hoe work.

After that, I started staining the front door.  The Gel Stain is pretty interesting stuff.  The first coat went pretty good, but would need a second coat.  We then went to lunch.

After lunch it was dry enough that I could cut the expansion joins in the driveway.  After getting through the first cut, the saw burned up.  $30 later at Ace Hardware and I had another cheap saw and got it finished.

Dad started working on the garage door, and got it finished so it will open.  The garage door opener is not on yet though.

I put sealant in the joints I cut, and then put the second coat of stain on the door.

After that, we went to Cades to see his glass railing in his second story.  It looks really nice.

Then Matt, Kelly, and the kids and I went for a walk.

I need to go back to the house at midnight and put the door knob on and lock up provided the door is dry.
