The Staining Begins

Finally the big day has arrived. I've been working hard all summer for this day! The stain is going on.
Cameron has his staining outfit on and is armed with the sprayer.

Running the thinner through the sprayer. Now the stain appears!

The first strokes of the stain going on.

Everything got a coat of stain - even the posts.

This was the best picture to show the difference before stain and after stain.

The logs were so dry that it really soaked this first coat in. One coat down three more to go - one more stain and two clear coat. Then it's on to the inside.
