A lesson learned

Leaving paint trays filled with water in the bathtub because you want to avoid cleaning them is not a wise move. Unless the paint colors you plan on using afterwards will look nice with a "rusty patina" effect to them, the rusting will render the paint trays useless, along with having another undesirable effect:


The paint I'm not worried about, it's latex and it'll scrub off, but the rust is going to be tricky. And to think, this was our "good" tub that didn't have rust stains!

In further progress, Aaron got about 1/5 of the insulation in the crawl space put up over the weekend, and also enlarged the hole (I started but got discouraged) for the dryer vent so he can hook that up down in the crawl space as well. I ended spending a good deal of my time there on Sunday scrubbing out the rollers we had bagged to avoid washing, and doing some beginning damage control (yes, that picture is an after) on the tub.
