We spent a good part of the day deciding on our plan of attack...
...as we intend to paint the ceiling in the main room of the camp.
The ceiling is simply the underside of the floor boards
of the upstairs and the old beams ...
and neither have ever been painted in their 80 plus years.
We also plan on painting the kitchen cupboards and counter tops...
I hope to have a white and pewter kitchen
before the summer is over.
The planning part is fun.
But then the work must be done!
:)
Really, it's just paint.
When we need a break...we can always jump in the lake!
Today was a beautiful day and tomorrow
is supposed to be nice here too!
Now if only the mosquitoes would quit!
hope your week is going well!
:)

Oh Laura....what a heavenly place!!!! Please keep sharing what you do to transform the camp, OK? Always take time to take a dip too :) hugs and love, Dawn
Oh my, what an amazing view! It almost looks like a postcard, it's so perfect. I love that No. 6 thing, whatever it is...it kind of reminds me of a vintage rake. What a beautiful patina :)
Hi Laura, your lake photos are so beautiful, I feel like I'm there. Looking forward to seeing the paint transformation of your place. xo Debra
i agree...beautiful view! oh your camp must be awesome with the beamed ceiling...i'd love to take down our plaster ceilings and leave as is...so cool.
as for the mosquito's try sallyeander "no bite me" insect repellent...smells good, no chemical junk in it and repels black flies too!
have a great time painting.
This looks like a beautiful place. The lake is SO beautiful. Love your photos.
Oh so pretty! I'd like to dip my toes into that lake.
I also love that No. 6 thing. Good luck with painting this summer!

Wow! How beautiful...how could it not be a peaceful day no matter what you are doing there? I know you enjoy your time there.
What a beautiful Lake.
Hope the painting goes smoothly.
This place looks awesome... like a scene from a fairytale! (Northeast USA?)
Love the old wood and laces. Such beautiful contrasts!

How can you get anything done with a view like that out your window? Amazing place...have fun.
Gorgeous! You can work a little, play a little - the perfect arrangement!
White and pewter sound delightful for a kitchen. It should be fun to "fix up" things at the camp. Enjoy your week, Laura.
