A whale of a tale

It started out as a tiny little bubble in the paint. When I cleaned the tub, the bubble broke and we had a tiny little hole in the white paint, through which, the old turquoise showed through. Then I might have picked at it a little bit.
Okay, maybe more than a little bit, but I can't help myself, it's just SO satisfying to peel a big chunk off in one piece!




Look, I made a whale!




After Dan made the appointment to have it reglazed, I really went to town, and the baby whale grew even bigger. No pictures, but I managed to pick away so much paint, that the guy didn't charge us the $150.00 that he usually tacks on for removing the old stuff. You're welcome, Dan.

It's all shiny and new looking again now, though.




The guy made a fairly significant booboo, but he won't be able to get back to fix it until September. Really! Oh well, whaddya gonna do? At least it's all one colour again.

Dan & I spent the day being tourists in our own town today. We wandered around downtown for a couple of hours, and quite enjoyed ourselves.















We weren't alone either, there were lots of people out enjoying the sunshine and the sidewalk cafés.

It's still a nice night, so we're off for another dog walk in the local park.

Thanks for stopping by.
