A little facelift action

For the mere sum of $300, we paid a few guys to re-stain the deck railings and lattice, and to paint the play structure.

They did a great job and the deck and play structure look way better than before.

Ray has always been inordinately invested in the play structure (notice the permanent roof he built on it, to replace the typical tent like roof these things normally come with). Maybe he figured the place really needed to be turned into high quality alternative housing, in case things ever really went south with the marriage...
