what can wash away my

May 24, 2008

I made a small discovery today. Water, with the right amount of force, can actually sand concrete, cut wood, remove skin..etc. i know we see things like this on the weather channel when they run the “amazing tsunami” or “death by tornado” specials. But today I used, for the very first time, a pressure washer,  A.K.A. “automatic water rifle.”  I was enamored (for the first hour only) that I could stand on the ground and carve lines of clean space through our dirty second story roof overhang at least 25 feet off the ground. And when I got too close to the wall, the stream would cut a line through the paint and make the cedar splinter…and that was what happened when used on wood. So in the event of a sudden break-in, I now have one more weapon to add to my arsenal, if it should ever come to that.
