    Lol. Different color paint underneath. The pressure washer only got the outer paint that was peeling off.

    I've got a very similar small metal backyard shed. We remodeled our house this spring and changed the siding color so now the barn doesn't really match the house. What paint and method did you use to paint yours. It looks great!

    As someone with out kids I might not fully understand, but shouldn't the trampoline be over the soft grass and not the hard rocks. I've been watching AFV for 30 years and trampoline vids are 25% of the show. lol

    I ran a new 220V line in my garage. I needed to move my air compressor to another area of my garage to make more room for my Tundra. It was a bit tight where it used to be. Much better now.

    They can’t fall through the trampoline lol. (Yet)Trampoline kills the grass from weight and is a PITA to move, weekly to mow.
    We originally had planned rubber mulch, but everywhere is still sold out :(

    Our grass seems to grow better under our trampoline. We have a Springfree 13X13 trampoline, it's super heavy but I move it every time I mow. I attach a couple of towing straps to it and my riding mower and move it out of the way. After I mow the area, I move it back.

    The weight from where it would sit was killing it. Then, add the foot traffic going to and from the trampoline (neighborhood kids) I was over it. :)

    Yeah there are spots that get killed where the frame sits too. I just move it back to them.

    Continuing on with backyard makeover. Pool installed :D Got the rock put down and mulched the area along my fence. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do there, glad I did instead of more rock. Now onto topsoil and sod. I also framed in my hvac for rock so no more weedeating around it.

    I will pat myself on the back for leveling out sand base. I'm 1-1/2" out of level @ my SW corner. With this type of pool I said :censored:I'm filling it. :rasta:

    Now you need to invest in a good pool cover. It'll help keep leaves out and your chlorine last longer.

    So true. But usually an easy and inexpensive fix.
    A few years ago I had water damage on my downstairs ceiling. Turned out to be a wax ring failure on the upstairs toilet. The part is only 99 cents, but it took me 3 tries to get it seated correctly. One piece toilet, so heavy and awkward. I'm not good with drywall and plaster so I got an AC vent cover and put it over the hole. Told my wife it was a tell tale drain if the the thing leaked again. She didn't buy it and found a guy to patch the hole.
    Now I'm going to find a piece of wood to knock on.
