Updated 9/18/2018:
This update is a real mixed bag.
Finally, I think the Outlook disaster is over. 
I am now running Microsoft Office 2016, including new versions of Word, Excel, Outlook, and PowerPoint. I must say that it is much slower than the previous version (why am I not surprised?). Anyway, most of my e-mails have survived intact.
I took my shot at weathering the "shorty" pier. I didn't like how it turned out and have since removed the weathering powders. I am studying my photos and will try again. I might even take a photo expedition to get a closer view.
I also built a couple of bridge pedestals. I'm actually going to need a few more (maybe 5).
Next, I took a stab at weathering the bridge shoes and pedestals. I'm much happier with this effort.
And finally, I installed the new light bulbs. Here are a few photos under the new lights. The 4100K bulbs are more like sunlight than the standard 2700K lights. I like the effect.
