I bought me a power washer

[LizStreithorst]

It's just a little one but I don't need big,  and with Amazon prime delivery is free.  I bought an even smaller one when I moved back home but I didn't know that I couldn't leave it in an outbuilding in freezing weather.  I know better now.  A lesson learned the hard way is a lesson remembered.

I don't need a power washer often enough to rent one of those monsters they have at the hardware store.  But when I need one I want to have one.  I have three things I'll use it for right away, the first of which is the siding on my house.  I have two other projects in mind that want a pressure washer, but they will stay put in my mind until I get ready to tackle them.

...clean da coop?

The coop doesn't need a power washer.  I cleaned it with a large dust pan and a rake.  There was a ton of shit in the shavings under where the chickens roost, but since the chickens spend from dawn to dusk outside foraging there was no odor.

After the house I want to power wash the Adirondack chair that Jack made for me from the treated lumber left over back when I first moved home and made one good board fence out of two board fences.  I didn't paint it because it looked like it was an antique, but I've decided that I need to blast it, let it dry well, and protect the wood some way..  I have a Mexican mortar and pestle that I can't remember the name for in Spanish that I think I could save a lot of time getting smooth with a power washer.  (I've read as much.  I'll find out.)

The other two projects are big and will stay in the back of my mind for now.
