Progress pics from the past

I'm procastinating on cleaning up after a day of painting, so here are a few more from the archives. I'll try to keep them dribbling through.

life in the bush - if it aint snowing it's burning!

Been only a few minutes this time...

I've forced myself to have a day off the tools today. It has been 70-80 hours of slog per week for as long as I can remember. So, while the muscles relax a bit, the mouse fingers are twitching. Here's a few more pics.

Enjoy
