This Past Wednesday Night, a group of us were scheduled to begin painting some of Cleveland's playground equipment. Key word here is were. I had went to Cleveland that afternoon and then to the paint store and found I had bitten a bit of a big project. I was peppered at the paint store with questions I should have known the answers to (what color? Yellow. What kind of yellow? Uh, playground yellow? That's not helpful. Do you have a sample we could match it with? Uh, no. Well, we'll need to tint the primer too, so until you can identify the color, there's not that much we can do). So needless, to say, we had to go to plan B, which was helping Cleveland collalate back to school packs for their 29 classrooms. It was a great time, our kids were able to participate (thanks to the folks in the picture for being so kind with our kids serving), and we completed a tangible project. We'll paint next week, and you can bet I'll be better prepared! By the way, the color is "sunnyside up". Who knew?
