The McCallus's are decked!

I am on vacation this week. My sister, Chris, took vacation too and came up to visit and help me build a deck on the front of our house. We started this morning about 9:30. Here is the progress we made today. Tomorrow we will finish with it. Our youngest son, Justin helped a lot also in the building of the deck. This is the 5:45 pm view.

We came up short a few boards due to an error in measurement. Tomorrow we will get the rest of the decking material and also make the risers for the steps and put on a rail.

This is the 12: 45 when we broke for lunch
This is the 9:35 view. We didn't start too early this morning because it was quite chilly here. The temp was in the 20's, so we thought we would let the frost get off of everything before we started.

Hi! I didn't know you was doing a deck. That will be pretty neat, and probably make it easier to get in your house :-). Looks like you're doing a good job! Nice that Chris came to help. Love to all, Aunt M.
