My spring project has been to scrub down, bleach and finally paint white our 14 year old cedar picket fence. It is a Herculean task, but, the results so far make me feel it is worth it!!! I must admit, there is something very cheery about a white picket fence. Even if there aren't many flowers in bloom it gives the yard a happy feel. It took a while to get my family on board about it, but when my hubby introduced the power sander, my 14-year-old son Casey and his friend were convinced that for $5.00/hr. each they could possibly help a bit. And wanting to earn more money for gum, Oriana has helped out too.
