HIT THE DECK!!!!!!

Well, here's the first picture of the deck. All I need to add to this structure are steps and some trim boards. Next spring we'll put plants and shrubs around the sucka. It's large enough to sit six people with a table and a grill. It's about 11 feet by 12 feet. I finished it yesterday and then B and I sat out there until almost dark. It was really a nice cool shady sit. We'd like to maybe put up a canvas canopy up in the future - one of those you would see set up in the center area at Fleet Farm with the wrought-iron-like work. Dunham Sports had a 10 x 10 on sale for $79 a few weeks ago. If you look closely in the background you can see the Exxon Valdes. What you need to do to propperly view this picture is to soak a rag in gas...sniff it for about 20 seconds...then open your eyes to look at this picture. If the wind floats gently from the southwest, this is what you will experience.
