Das Duck Haus

Posted on

My brother drew a design for our duck house that we, alas, had to reject. We couldn’t get the city to approve the wifi tower, and PETA was unhappy with the spiral staircase. They said it would cause too much stress to the ducks. How else, I ask, were the ducks supposed to get to / from the landing pad?

The work on our duck house continues. The boys got the walls framed and are finishing up the walls. Mom and I did some priming, but we couldn’t keep up with the boys’ progress. Plus we were running low on primer. Here’s some photos of the progress. Eventually the whole thing will be painted brickish red. We got two cans of really pricey paint for $2 each (normally over $30 each), so who cares about the color. Maybe I’ll put a mosiac on the side or something fun later.

It’s back to work tomorrow for me. Andy will probably collapse all day and rest. Or maybe paint. Hee.
