For a small garage, this thing sure has a lot of surface area. Doesn't that violate some kind of law of physics? Maybe it's a three-dimensional fractal. Mandelbrot's Garage.
Kathy tested this theory a few weeks ago by starting to paint the garage doors. Simple, you say. Yet somehow, six hours later, we still had more to go--lots more. This place is all nooks and crannies and tiny places inaccessible to paintbrushes.
Even the siding on the walls was more time-consuming than we imagined. We'd considered using a paint sprayer but decided that (a) too much paint would blow away in the wind, and (b) it'll be easy with a brush and a roller. "How hard can it be?" has been our mantra this last year or so.
After a few days of fair-weather painting, the garage is now mostly painted. The white part is about done, but we still have to paint the contrasting trim colors around the top. But that, in turn, requires permission from the city. More on that later.
