Oh man. Yeah, that's right by me.
That' could be a nice option.
You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

I concur. But not too orangey. If you've got any loose pieces, pull them up and try sample stains on a side that can be hidden later. And I highly recommend having it powerwashed with a cleaner first. Including the board for the sample. It will stain more evenly and be truer to the advertised color (so less guesswork.)
Remember, it's easier to go darker, but more work to go lighter if you change your mind. Forgive all the advice, I know you're hiring it out so they' would know what they're doing. I just have lots of experience with staining...

Brenda, what about something like Sage Brush, Mountain Brush, Bark Mulch or Bark? [link] I know Cabot has color chips and samples.

I appreciate it, for sure. It will be power washed, sanded etc first.

Also, there are stains that have more paint pigment (more opaque) if you find the wood too uneven for a traditional stain. That's probably common for deck stains.

Yikes about that bus crash. I'm glad Bob's home this week; that's around the corner from where he stays. I'm in NC watching my nephew watch Bill Nye episodes. I probably shouldn't have let him watch so many but, uh, SCIENCE!

Michigan and Lake. It's not good.
Yikes. I sometimes take the 148 downtown and get on northbound buses at Michigan and South Water, so I'm glad I was home sick today.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Oh man. Yeah, that's right by me.
I remember randomly seeing you at that corner a time or two. I've changed my habit so I was at Randolph instead of Lake when it happened.
