Well, guess I’m stuck for a while (cat rules).
Dog wants to know how come the cat is “on the couch” when we aren’t allowed ?
Don’t know what to tell you, life isn’t always fair pooch.

I pick my wife up from Vancouver International Airport tomorrow morning, so today I do 5 weeks of cleaning in one afternoon.
This is what efficiency looks like.

Adze panel medallion door has made its way down to the finish shop and as I expected the finish is going to bring this door to life.
1st coat of the process is the “impregnator” to help minimize possible mold growth and it already has the colours & contrast popping.

Sometimes incremental change isn’t enough and you just have to blow shit up and start over.

Interesting project moving through the shop at the moment.
Sapele entry door with an adze finish panel, set into the adze panel is a yellow cedar medallion that has had a drawing done by the clients daughter cut into the surface and then filled with black epoxy.
Should look amazing with finish.

Yesterday I posted about how we feed the crows regularly and how they now recognize us & follow us around.
Today they (the crows) took things to the next level by bringing one of the staff a special treat ….. a dead rat that I’m sure they thought was a nice food exchange. 🤷♂️

We feed the birds where I work and have been feeding crows in particular for going on 2 years.
They now recognize everyone who works here and rush the shop when they see any of us arrive.
Today I was followed down the street as I walked to our spray shop, kinda cool, but a little weird as well.

Wife needs to make a short notice trip to Perth Australia to help out mom who’s struggling a bit with some recent health issues.
Going to be bacheloring for a month or so, these kind of events help keep you flexible in the brain and appreciative of the life you’ve built.
