Dive right in part 3 ~

Wow, Robert & Kim Wittekind have finished their labor of love project...their pair of painted adirondacks, and they are beautiful!  I am actually a little late on bringing the news to you, as the chairs were completed this previous Sunday...it was a busy week :-)  But this story isn't about me, so lets get to it, shall we?  Again, I'll allow Robert's words to guide us through to the fabulous finish!

"I completed my chair on Sunday"


"Kim's chair also completed on Sunday."


"The two chairs side by side. They will sit and dry for a couple of days before we Spray a finish on them to protect them and then to the back porch they go. A fun project for Kim and I to do together."  What can I paint now????


When I saw the above picture, I loved that Robert and Kim had put, in words, their own expressions on the chairs.  I also thought about how cool it would be to see them on the porch and wondered if we'd be privileged enough to see them in their permanent homes...much to my delight, Robert and Kim shared.  I sat here thinking of a few clever things to say about the final photo, but decided to let it speak for itself.


"A picture of the completed chairs finally on the back porch."


I have to admit I felt a warm fuzzy sort of smile on my face when I read the last sentence in Robert's caption (What can I paint now????)  If you remember I think I mumbled something about them "catching the fever"...
Kudos to you, Robert and Kim!  You not only undertook a project from which many would run; you did it together ~ that makes it all the more special.  Many thanks to you both for allowing my readers and me in on this journey of fun.  I think I speak for many when I say I wish you the joy of making new memories, planning new adventures and just plain old chillin' in these treasures!


Here's to the good stuff of life,
Coconut Sal~
