Summer Project 2011 Begins

We've been very BUSY here at Mimi's Cottage this week.


Buying wood...



Digging footings...


Buying more wood...



Painting every single stick of wood...


Two coats, primer and finish...


We're doing all this so that we can have a little shade.
I'll show you the finished project next week.

    Pergola? Can't wait to see it all finished. We're thinking of building one off our barn.
