Today is Jon's birthday.  He is 73.  This picture is from last year on his birthday.  He was up on a 28 foot ladder!!! 

 

Fortunately, the stain that he used is good for five years.  So, this is NOT how he will be spending this birthday.  We will do something less exciting.  Something a little safer than maneuvering a 28 foot ladder.  

 

I am hoping that the next time the house needs to be stained, we can get Tim to do it.  He's a lot younger than we are.  Maybe he will be available by then.

 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JON!!!
