just taking a minute to let you know that its hot outside! i love it though, you know i do. i've stained a lot of the deck and the deck mate is very cool. i'm waiting on rick to get back from the depot with a couple more wool stainer things. they work really great but they get torn up from the some of the older wood that snags it. anyway, our deck is going to rock and we're having a party when its done! yippee!!! whoo hoo. party on dude.
