And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Somebody needs to get a ladder and some paint for that place.
I have read that back in the day wood for siding and exterior trim was heartwood and weathered much better than what is used today. I've gotten to the point where I won't buy wood windows no matter how much they cost. Have to be clad with something.
That white wash just didn’t hold up…
ReplyDeleteDon't go overboard. it only needs some power washing
ReplyDeleteLooks awesome just as it is.
ReplyDeleteIf it is still there.
ReplyDeleteIf that's how poorly they were taking care of it then, almost certainly not.
DeleteThat wood is so weathered that paint will never stick to it.
ReplyDelete300 gal. of Kilz should fix that.
DeleteReminds me of Robert Mitchum's station in "Out Of The Past".
ReplyDeleteWell they work for Chevys so they are too busy to get around to it
