Welcome to our new blog site.
What have we been up to.... Well busy times for the
folks here. We are currently in Puerto La Cruz, Venezuela. Which is the
"Port of the Cross", there is a big plastic blue cross on the main drag of the
town. It actually looks a bit tacky when you are close up, but there you have
it.
We have had the decks painted while we have been
here and it has been a major mission. We have had to take all the stuff off the
decks to ensure we have had a good job done and the boys did a marvelous job. I
do not know how the guys can stay out in the sun all day and still work. But
they put in a full day with no shade. They sanded all the decks by hand even the
places where i had filled holes with expoxy. I know my sander does not like
doing those bits.
I'm really happy with the results and it was
fast only 3 weeks. At the moment i'm almost finished putting everything back
together which has been a lot slower than anticipated, I can't work a full day
let alone be out in this heat. We have been living in an apartment which has
been great if for the only reason that there is air conditioning which means
cool while the heat of the day passes. Of course it is a bit hard starting work
again at 4.00pm as it is sooo close to beer time but most times i manage a bit.
