More On The Deck!

Since August 22nd when the bees were gone and the deck men returned I have been taking pictures of the progress.

Tuesday night the boards that were bolted to the dome were gone and the basic frame was going up.

 

The new uprights were put in place but now the wasps became active as the day warmed up.  So much for living in the country with nature.  Wasp spray and a good aim became the priority of the day.

Progress the next day and on Thursday in the on and off drizzle one man worked all day by himself with us acting as monitors for him.

He worked on placing floor joists and accomplished quite a bite.

Ending his day with the majority of planks in place .

Friday work started around 7am to avoid the warmer part of the day and our friends the wasps.  With two men on the job floor joist were nailed into place and uprights for the railing were bolted on. 

So when they left Friday afternoon this was what it looked like.

It is now 1:43 am on Monday morning and I expect the drive way doorbell to go off in another roughly five hours announcing the arrival of the deck men to start the the new week so good night my friends!
