...in the Vineyard.  But now the c. 1952 concrete floors are a problem.  They
were originally painted green, then in 1999 painted again.  But the 1999
paint job is failing, albeit only in areas where the glides on the chairs
rub.  But it is quite noticeable (should have done the 1999 work in the same
green, but didn't think that far ahead).

The painting was done by an excellent island painter (Alcatraz? Devils's?
No, Martha's Vineyard.)  who doesn't really say much except that they really
should be repainted every two or three years (@$1200 the pair).

I've been toying with the idea of a) marrying someone with a house with
porches with wooden floors  and b) stripping all the paint off, exposing the
"natural" concrete (which appears to be a nice sand color).  What's wrong
with that?  Stains?  Dirt?  Any low-maintenance ideas (but don't suggest
marrying a painter).
