Painting before the storm

We started the day with Jonathan's last soccer game for the season and his soccer team celebration and then it was back to the Airstream to finish some wall patches and get the Route 104 Science airstream ready to come home for painting. With rain on the forecast for the next three to four days, we wanted to make the most of our last hot sunny day to paint the exterior.  

After pressure washing and scrubbing the outside, we let the 105 degree air temperature dry the Airstream off for us. Then Faith and I worked out a deal where I would tape and she would roll the paint on. Although its not exactly Thunderbird Blue, Behr's Azure Lake looks close enough to my mom's Thunderbird blue to work as a memorial.
