An Old Sign Finds a New Home

The name and decorative flourish were stenciled on by my dad.

Well, check another unfinished task off the list.  I finally got around to hanging this sign.  It had been a gift from my dad to my grandfather and lived on the wall next to my grandfather's back door.  Now it lives on my garage, facing the back yard, where I'll see it whenever I go out there.  The other now-finished tasks in this photo are the removal of the unused satellite dish that came with the house and the addition of a guide wire for the Passion Vine growing just out of the frame to the left.  

Getting the garage "ceiling" repaired and the lights installed was like the tsunami hitting the continental shelf and beginning to rise.  There was progress happening before then but each step seemed to take enormous energy.  Since then I've been riding this wave of motivation and getting all sorts of things done, some of them hobby related.  The key has been following the passion whenever possible, choosing a task from a list of options.  None of the steps are particularly difficult on their own but each one paves the way for the next and soon the progress becomes tangible, visible, real.  Momentum is a powerful force.

This one is special.
