Pressure washing as therapy

I got my little electric pressure washer fixed this week. It works like a charm now, so I spent yesterday, a sunny day for a change, out powerwashing the deck. It's so therapeutic, washing all the green stuff off to reveal the clean wood below. It feels as if winter has lifted along with the algae!
This week is going to be an exciting one. Catherine arrives on Tuesday, Mom's 85th birthday coincidentally, and we are heading down to Seattle aboard the Clipper for a two night, one day getaway. Then we'll come back to celebrate John's 60th birthday. Andrew will be here on the 27th, and Heather will be over from Saltspring for the big day. Sheralyn will be here on the 31st, too late for the party but it will be great to see her in the last trimester!
