The Deck

The start of a new deck... We went and bought the lumber!

I cut the lumber and Yoko helped me by holding it still so I could try and

cut a straight line..

Now we have it all framed out.. I can't tell you who's butt that is because she would kill me.

We did good huh? Take a look at the screen door That is what started all of this. It rotted and needed to be replaced. When we went to Home Depot we got carried away with all the lumber we saw... Not really... the idea of this deck was to make it easy for Shinji to go outside. Notice how we put the deck more to the end of the screen porch and not towards the brick wall, that is because of the way the door opens. At first we were going to have the steps come down from the front of the deck but the side is better because we can sit on the deck with out people trying to get past us...

We stained the deck redwood... and look at the door I fixed it.. don't laugh it works...
