The driveway's done. Almost. Now it needs to be sealed. It is sealed with a mystery fluid you can't see when dry. That keeps you from knowing why you paid more.
But the acid stain spraying guy didn't melt into the concrete like I thought he would, and, as a Professional, he did a reasonable job. Our blue white 'crete is now a mottled orange. This is more organic and blends in better. It'll go nicely with my car when I put it up on blocks to rust.
Next up, next week, the invasion of the Landscapers, part two. The Part One company failed miserably in so many ways. Donald Trump wouldn't have said, "You're fired!" - he would have said, "Come here," then beaten them bloody with a shovel. So our weeds'n'dirt will be hydraseeded with flourescent color to look like Lambeau Field in December. Then, some time later, the flourescence will be replaced by tiny little shoots of growth.
Day before yesterday, a scorpion was lounging by the pool, when a very heavy planter pot just rolled over its back, crushing it. Man. That's bad luck.
Next week we hope to start the 11 step process of Sun-Deck, which coats the concrete poolside with simulated concrete. It's supposed to stop you from frying eggs poolside on the deck. Sun Deck is applied by professionals who are NOT RESPONSIBLE for cleaning up the pool. The brochure is quite specific about this. I hope their tacos don't clog the pool filter till I can vacuum the stuff out.
