    Thanks tortuga. Will be in touch privately — assuming I can figure out how to do that!! 🙂

    Samoas and Caramel DeLites though similar are different from one another. They are made by different companies and each local council decides which to sell. Several of the GS cookies have different names from different manufacturers. Personally I like Samoas better than Caramel DeLites, but have not been able to find Samoas. Our family is in the midst of doing blind taste tests on the two! How is that for a good excuse to eat more. LOL

    Caramel Delites are the same as Somoas, regional naming.

    I could get you one box of Somoas, maybe another, from a district charging $5/box.

    Coming up from the flats later today and again next weekend.

    Is the cookie sale over? We ate what we bought but I promised 2 boxes of Caramel DeLites to someone and I can’t find any. 🙁 Any Girl Scout out there with any cookies left?

    We were happy with Kevin Dye’s painting and staining. Professional, clean, competitive pricing, easy to work with.

    Colletta painting. They painted my house last summer in Camp Connell. They did a great job and were very professional. Their price was reasonable, too.

    Ditto on Kevin Dye. We met with several paining contractors, some never follow through with a bid, others were hard to reach – Kevin promptly submitted a bid, communication was an A+ and most importantly we were very happy with the work he performed (on time and budget). He’s local, a great dad and a nice guy too boot!

    I have found out the dirty and the wetter the deck is the better the stain or paint adheres

    Does a deck have to be pressure washed prior to re treating, and if so doe it need to thoroughly dry before sealing?

    I had my modest cabin done by Kevin Dye last summer.
    He’s really a nice guy and now raising his family in Arnold after moving from AZ where he had a bigger company.
    He did the exterior and treated the deck. To my layman’s eye the work is excellent.
    I had no problem at all with what he charged.
    One very cool difference was what he did for my estimate.
    He shot a video walking around the outside of my place with a running commentary on what needed to be done and how he intended to do it.
    He then posted it to youtube and sent me the link.
    pretty cool.
    FWIW – Highly recommended by me.

    We are looking for recommendations of painting contractors that will do exterior, interior, and also our deck. Thanks.
