wards lane

when i got home from work and a sign saying 'wards lane' was there. our good friend mark was doing some work up north and the city was doing some road construction and this sign was in the "throw away" pile. he was nice enough to think of us and he knew we would love it. right away, we were trying to decide what to paint on it. i looked over and over for a design of oakleaves, but nothing looked like us.
we had some time to find a design because we needed to take the old address off (which was a lot harder to do than i thought), and take off the other side that had the city emblem on it. that part was such a pain, so  i ended up painting over it. then one night it hit me...paint a flag on it. it took me a while to get the measurements on it and to make sure the lines would be straight. once that was done, the painting went a lot faster and it was done.
it felt so good to get a project done and out of the house. i love pulling into our driveway with our sign. thank you mark!
