Shutter to think

Weeks ago Wendy and I received a letter from our HOA, really known as DOA.  They informed us that our shutters were faded and we needed to power wash our house.  So my brother power washed our house.  Then we put some rocks down to help water splash dirt up on the house.  Since our foundation is so low, when it rains the dirt hits the side of the house.  We have a few more rocks to put down, to make it look nice.

That still leaves the faded shutters.  We looked around the neighborhood and other neighbor's shutters were faded.  However, being diligent, and wanting to get the HOA off our back we decided to freshen them up.  Being a guy who cares nothing for detail, I wanted to ignore it, but Wendy talked me into it.  So we went to Lowes and found some paint.  Wendy, being the great painter, performed the operation.  The paint we picked up did match the old, which is surprising.  Wendy did a great job and the shutters look good.

Hopefully this will be the end of our letters from the HOA.
