Watching paint dry..


Recommended Posts

Well, I pulled the trigger and while humming "Paint Your Wagon" Lee Marvin style, flew in and painted my gun cart..Got a link from over on the wire to some pics of old wagons from back in the day, which comfirmed my notion that a lot of old wagons were painted green with red trim, sometimes a bit of yellow..I guess "John Deere green" is a holdover from the old days, there were examples dating all the way back to the 1850's.. B)

 

Anyhoo, I finished the last bit of trim this morning, and will probably put it back together this afternoon..I do believe it's gonna look purty good! :D

 

I'm sure I'll get some raggin' from my Pards at the range about my cart lookin' like a riding mower, but it's gonna be fun explaining that color has been being used for about 150 or so years! ^_^

Thank you for remembering my John Deere dress. :unsure: Unfortunately, I've only worn it once :rolleyes: and I've never worn the hat that only goes with it.

 

I am so :blush:

 

Now how could I forget it? But all that work, and only worn it once?

Dearest MCM,

 

After your post, I must wear it again and, this time, with the hat!

 

Photos will be forthcoming!
