Installing Extra Large Wrought Iron Brackets for the Hanging Baskets

Seriously, the rain must stop or I will never get anything else crossed off my list.

I did get the corner boards primed and painted so we were able to install the new extra large brackets to hang the extra large baskets.

These brackets are from the same eBay seller where I purchased the wrought iron urns.

But Friday is a big day for us.  R reserved an excavator to break apart the pool and dig up or move 6 or 7 boulders.  Three of those stones worked their way to the surface over the last 6 or 7 years but now they are so high that I can no longer mow over them.  R is keeping his fingers crossed that these are not the size of the garden shed and more like the size of something I can use in our landscape.

As soon as I finish painting shingles I am going to start painting the deck railings with a ultra white opaque stain.
