Deck is Done!
Woohoo! My dad and I completed the deck today! Check out pics from the process here.
I would have to say it turned out better than I thought it would, considering that neither of us had any experience building a deck before. The true test is coming, though….party time! Mark your calendars for Sat, July 3. I’ll be throwing a “test the deck”…er…”yay, a deck” party then. Time and more details to come. Everyone is invited!

Congrats Chris on completing the deck! I am sure its all an exciting process. Now you can help me find a place to live

And you don’t just have a house, it’s a house with a big garage, a deck and a yard! Maybe I need to rethink the “real job” idea…

Thanks, Paul.
Yeah, the grill is definitely on my list of things to get this week, along with some more furniture…lol, thought about the hot tub, too. It’s so tempting…

Party was awesome! Had about 20 people and the deck held up
It was a very good time! Thanks for coming everyone. I’ll have to have another one for those of you who couldn’t make it.
