I just realized I haven’t posted a photo of the big barn since the staining and painting were completed.
.

Needless to say I’m very pleased.

The nice thing is, the husband was pleased as well.

I know this because I overheard him talking to the painter saying he wasn’t sure he would like a red barn and that he’d fought his wife over it… boy did he!… but in the end, even he had to admit it looked great.

Technically it’s not totally done, as the crew is going to box in the eaves on the overhang. But in Maine, you have to paint until the weather turns, so they’ll be back another day to finish that.

My porch furniture cushions also need to be recovered in a fabric that doesn’t clash.

But baby barn approves.
And we have a red and white barn!
Yay.

It looks gorgeous! Glad it’s (almost) done.

What other color than red would a barn be? Seriously, even here in Texas the barns are red lol.

The husband wanted to leave it natural wood. And on occasion I have seen green.

It looks fantastic! Why wouldn’t he want a red barn? Barns HAVE TO BE red. It’s in the Constitution.

The plan was to put a night light tint of stain on it before winter, but my knee injury has derailed that.

AH. Well something to look forward to in the spring. It’s freaking 27* and snow covered here today. By Saturday? Back to 60*. If you don’t like the weather in the Midwest? Wait a day or so…it’ll change.

We’re overcast, drizzly and about 45 degrees. Northern Maine has snow and sleet.
