A Tuning the Air Journal

Sunday February 28, 2010 – Practical Work Continued

Greg, Howard and I arrived at Igor’s place at 9:30 this morning to wrap up the paint and touch-up project. We knew that the 3 new risers needed a second coat of white, as well as some additional black on the sides. Greg also noticed that one of the older risers had not gotten its white top coat. The Abbey was going to be occupied all day beginning around noon, so Greg and I loaded the 8 finished risers into our cars and drove them over right away rather than waiting, leaving Howard to begin work on the painting. A homeless guy was asleep in front of the Abbey door, and I hated disturbing him, but we needed to have access. By the time we returned, Howard had completed the white painting, and we just needed to do a little more black touch-up. More excellent coffee from Igor.

We left the risers in the carport to dry. Later today Mary Beth and Taylor will swing by to stand them up out of the way so that the carport can be used for its intended purpose. Some time tomorrow we will need to move them into storage, and then the task will be complete.
