Pete and Kelli’s social distance day 72
28th May 2020
Leg number two, the thought of repeating what I did yesterday was not appealing, but that was my target. The timber was not as good as I was led to believe. The table appears to be a light, pale timber like spruce but probably originated in Asia.
The finish has tinted the wood, so the final stain will have to cover all that.
I broke up the leg sanding to lighten the tedium, in between I laid up a pine shelf for the entertainment centre Kelli has been working on.
The news was filled with the killing of a black guy in Minneapolis by a policeman. All this was filmed, and splashed all over the networks. It was a disgusting spectacle, and of course sparked off riots, burning and looting.
There is no excuse for this action because it serves only to detract from the initial atrocity.
The pandemic has claimed over a hundred thousand American lives, and there had been little mentioned by the President, this is just collateral damage to person that values wealth more than human life, what a scumbag.
