Forrest's Project






Being the good son that he is Forrest offered to paint his mom's house rather than have her pay someone thousands of dollars to do it with the proceeds of her reverse mortgage. Mary Lou has always wanted a blue house, but my late father-in-law would never let her have one. She was also leary of having a blue house because she didn't think she could have anything but brown because she has brick on the front of the house. Last month we convinced her that blue and brown can co-exist and that she should have the color she's always wanted. She picked out the colors in Spokane, and then Forrest and I bought the paint for her at a Sears near our home. You'll notice that her blouse matches the house and so does the sky. It's a bit bright for me, but she's very happy with it. Forrest's next job will be to go car shopping with his mom. I bet you can guess what color Corolla she wants.

Great paint job Forrest. Maintain those skills as I might need them someday!!! Must be time to go fishing or golfing after all that work.
