Permits & Paint

  This project is getting to that solid feel where you realize it's happening.  Yesterday our local utility EWEB granted us an official permit.  We now have the right to "enter" the field across the street and appropriate some of EWEB's gravel.  We'll use the gravel to flatten out a space alongside Whitten drive for our box.  I've been impressed with the degree of cooperation we've gotten from Tim O'Dell of EWEB and Michele Wilcox from the City of Eugene.  Now that we're official it's time to round up a crew to prepare the site.


  Along with some ground preparation I've been thinking about paint colors.  I consulted my wife Linda whose innate sense of color is vastly superior to my own. After a bit of rummaging through the garage we came up with some ideas.  We're thinking a Chinese lacquer like red door with some other contrasting colors for the interior (keeping the shelves black) and a light green exterior.  Looks like most of this we have and will need to just pick up a quart of paint for the door.



Painting Party this weekend?
