box knock-out
is anyone available over the next two days (tues/wed) to spend some quality time with the yet-to-be-sanded-and/or-mudded white boxes in the studio. after taking a few to the site on thursday, the team noticed that they could use a little more love before starting with the red coats.
i'm available to pitch in the evenings (7:30-on)
i think we're getting to the end of what we can do in the studio (janine - maybe an update on the sails?) so it's bye-bye basement, hello awkward tan lines!
