The Deck Lesson

Who knew that refinishing the back deck would create so much drama? We didn't. This project involved a lot of sanding:
Staining:
A bit of planking:
And more staining.
Note to self: Do not use oil based stain. It won't soak in. You'll go 2 weeks without being able to walk out your back door. After applying stain remover and doing it the right way, the refinished deck looks great, and feels so smooth!
