Is it mold or algae ? I frequently see "green growths" on vinyl sided
houses around here [SC]. It's been so wet and humid here that even
part of our newer [~5 years old] pressure treated deck started to sprout
some green tinges.

Regarding the paint - I wonder if it is because it is latex paint (?) that
you start to see some mold/mildew ["SC's State Flower"] ? I also wonder
if an oil-based paint would have the same problem ? I suspect it would
be less likely. That may be the difference ?

Cheers,

saw your picts of the foam Stream on the general discussion thread you might want to edit it with a note to click on picture. I am still sick I have been sick since Friday before Christmas. I am so tired of this I am beginning to think it is the FLU and no I was getting my flu shot this week. I will get it as soon as I am over the flu. I just want to sleep cough and snot. I ache all over and and feel like a truck left me for dead. I hope I get well too. I am making some drawings and since my printer went south I will have to take pictures of them then I will post. Just thoughts when I am sick. I still think your Foam Stream is one nice Foamie/standie I want one but I think I want to build my own trailer with some really light weight components. I'm thinking

Glad you’re feeling better !!! Housework (grrr!!!!) That’s never ending eh ? And since the wife is still working , can you guess who the full time housekeeper is .... I just try to do a little bit every day so it doesn’t gang up on me ...
Funny , now I find myself chasing the wife around saying “Pick up your “Stuff”(though not exactly that word) , dammit !!! “ ... Same thing she used to tell me ... Catch back !!!

Oh !!! almost forgot ... supposed to get in the 20’s here , another chance to test the insulation on the FS ... it’s all hooked up , so all we have to do is go inside and turn it on ... Likely will be the warmest spot around ... I may spend some in time there... only way to get warm .... Winter driveway camping .... and Sauna...

[Mary C]

Hey GPW did you go out and get so comfortable and warm and spent the night in the FS? I am thinking about putting the cats sand box in the Grits and shutting the cat up in there for Monday and Tuesday nite when the temp gets down to 7or 8 degrees. I would put my little 200 watt heater in there too, at least she would be warm. If I bring her in she uses the potty everywhere except the sand box. I shut her in the storage room in the barn and she will use the sand box. This cat is crazy. She really likes to be outside.

anytime you want a little more to do (housework) you can come to my house , maybe I can get some done this week.

Today is my day off I am going to do what I want to today, it is my birthday and I want to become Grand!!!!!! 11 more posts to go!!!
