If you have to explain a joke, it’s not funny - the color was last thing I
wanted you to look at.  It is “Old Fashioned Milk Paint’s” Soldier Blue with a
bit of black in it.  All of my other’s are either black or dark green and I
wanted something different.  Nancy Evans’ books note that yellow was very
popular, but I need to reserve that for the Gragg elastic chair I am making at
Don Wilson’s barn 3 months from now.

But thanks for the guesses
