Deck Remodel – Monday (day 14)
Back to the work week where not much gets done in the evenings. Now that the weather is colder here it also seems like the light is going away pretty fast. At the point when we move the clocks back I am sure there won’t be any light after work, so I better get it whipped by then. I did get a few more deck boards down and even put two in with a notch to accommodate the post.
Here's the notched pieces. The dark one is so dark due to the wetness of the treated wood.
The next two pictures can sort of give you an idea of how much decking I have down now. The deck is about 27′ long so there are a few necessary splice in the runs. I have consciously tried to keep them spaced out. It takes a little longer to plan and cut, but in the long run I think it will look a lot nicer than the previous deck where the joints were always in the same two spots.
Looking along the front of the kitchen window
I hope the deck looks this "warm and inviting" when I'm all done!
Man, that is looking good! (and inviting…)
Ya know it’s probably that warm incandescent light more than anything else!
