Morning all.
Trash/recycling is out and car is charging. Gonna be another hot one today. The humidity is 93% already. I'll be going out for my walk early, hopefully can make at least four miles.
The garage cleaning was a chore yesterday, not only because it felt like a sauna. I moved everything, swept everything, and...the power washer didn't work. At first it was due to water hook up issues, but later it tripped the circuit breaker, and I think it burned the motor out. So after an online study of power washers (and drying off), fortunately Lowe's had the one in stock I wanted, and at $50 off. The garage still wasn't dried out after 3 plus hours.

Dr Jeff, do you make house calls with your new power washer? Our the leeward sides of our house could use a good scrubbing?
Hot and humid here for the next 3 days, weather should break Wednesday evening or Thursday.
Speaking of 'tripping circuit breakers' - the Arc Fault breaker that was being tripped by the basement/train room dehumidifier has only tripped once since I bought a Ground Fault breaker to replace it. That breaker is still in the box. I guess the threat of replacement was enough to make the Arc Fault behave.
More work on the sidewalks today after German class.
add: Pin wash added to the cracks. The first photo is a close-up showing one corner with full pin wash, and the other with pin wash on the outsides only. I'm using Vallejo acrylic dark grey wash.

and the full set of sidewalks done. I sprayed them with A&I wash, which had the accidental benefit of adding some cracking to the acrylics on the slates.

I need to let the paint re-cure after the A&I wash, then I'll do pigments and finally repaint the curbs.
