Painted Brick and Other Summer Fun

Over the years I have stored up quite a collection of images of painted brick and painted cottages. I don't know that I would have the courage to paint our brick given the fact that I really do like the color of our brick and I believe it's a "historic" whatever that means brick... I've been told by several older neighbors that the woman that built our house in 1959 was very particular and that our brick is "special"... if there can be such a thing... But look what a difference a fresh coat of paint can make.
