Bill, that sounds like WAYYYYY too much physical labor to me and a LOUSY way to spend any of your weekend.
Heatstroke is no joke and can cause permanent damage, especially in anyone getting old(er) ! The vast majority of us here are getting real close to being "old coots".

Man, you have no idea. And it wasn't just the weekend, it was the whole week. Temps in the upper 80's/low 90's every day, and it wasn't a dry heat. The heat index was over 100 ever day. I golfed on Tuesday night and thought it couldn't get worse than that, but yesterday proved me wrong. I did manage to get the Magnum Sprint and Solar Warrior coated with F&F, so they're both looking good for the 9-11 launch. Golf is supposed to be over on Tuesday, but the high temps will only be in the upper 70's. Survivable, but I'm REALLY over the whole golf thing this year.
