Deck Extravaganza!!!
A team of my craziest and most handy friends hit my house on Saturday morning for a deck building extravaganza!!! We finished everything but the rail cap and the stairs because we ran out of wood. The only near disaster was when Brandon threw the OPEN exacto knife at Steve (the builder) and sliced his finger open. Killing the builder...not good for the plan!!
The way the day started...posts and a pile of wood.
This is a snake hole. Hopefully the snakes are now GONE!!!
Did I mention that Steve post holed right through my drain pipes for the downspouts? Twice? Kevin, Scott and Roger did some lovely ditch work to cut out the bad pipe and splice in new stuff. Rob is supervising here...
Still supervising...
Brandon and Roger felt left out of the pipe fixing, ditch digging fun so they decided to break their own pipe while moving the sat dish. Hooray!! More pipes to fix!!!
Scott with a Sawzall. Anyone frightened?
Steve and Kevin make sure that the first boards go in perfectly.
