Well, winter is finally here and that means ski season here in Colorado. So far this season it has been a little disappointing in the snow department. Most of the mountains in Colorado have below average snow fall so far this winter, but it is still early. The Pikes Peak region is very close to several world-class ski resorts. That is why it is very important to find a local ski and snowboard shop. The Ski Shop located in Southwest Colorado Springs has been locally owned and family operated since 1952.
Boylan & Company offers a great military incentive program. Why shouldn’t we? We have a huge military presence in the Pikes Peak Region. They put their lives on the line to protect the United States of America and they are a big part of the Colorado Springs economy. The program includes cash incentives and services.

I don’t know about anybody else, but staining a deck is no fun! Luckily, I have a great mother-in-law, wife and grandpa to help. Here are a few steps to take when staining a deck. First, you need to counter sink the nails and screws. This can be a very tedious step if most your screws and nails are popped. Second, you need to clear and debris off the deck so you can power wash. You will need to give adequate drying time before moving on to the third step……..sanding. I highly recommend renting a floor sander from Bill’s Tool Rental. It will save you hours of time and back pain. You must then sweep all of the sanding dust off the deck before performing the final step, which is applying the stain. This is my favorite step because you are just about done and you actually start to see satisfaction from all your hard work. Actually, the final step is sitting back, relaxing, barbecuing and enjoying a cold beer on your freshly stained deck. This is truly my favorite step. If you have any questions about staining a deck, I recommend calling a handy man……not me.
