Finally!!! The paint is done...kind of... Well, my painting is finally completed on the exterior. I still need to do some touching and stenciling but other than that she's pretty much done. I'm still undecided about the interior or the carrier. I may end up MERDC'ing it. For now, the paining...

Hi Peter, our State Tournament came to an end on Thursday. Montesano Little League placed 4th in state. The boys hoped for a bid at the Little League World Series but not this year.

Well my son's team, Montesano Little League is at State. We've managed to knock several teams off the bracket. We're down to the last 4 teams of this tournament. Someone will represent Washington State on Saturday. Hoping and praying it'll be Montesano!!! Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
