dammm BATMAN your killing it, thats one freaking big deck you got going onQuit for the day on the deck at about 9. Took a shower, having some tea and watching some cartoons.
It was pretty dark when I finally quit so I couldn't get the latest pics, but this was about 4:00-ish before I started putting the top on. I started on the outside and worked toward the house. I got 7 rows on. With the wife helping me, pre-drilling the holes and taking over the screw gun when it's time for me to measure the next board, we were averaging about 20 minutes per row. I should be real close to done tomorrow night if we don't get rain.
AWESOME

I ran out of juice about 6:00. I think schlepping 70 soaking wet, heavy, treated 12' 2x6s from my trailer out front to the back yard took it's toll.
Last Saturday morning there was only 6 holes with concrete piers with a threaded rod sticking out. So 2 days of digging and pouring piers, 2 days of building beams and setting joist and 2 days of laying boards so far. Also two of those days I got late starts because I went to the lumber yard to pick up massive loads of lumber. Not horrible for an old man, though if I was 5 years younger I would be done right now.

They're all straight and level. The 11' section of the main beam was a little squirrely. I got in a hurry and just started setting joist without checking the middle. Had to pull 4 or 5 down and draw them up.

Watching for funnel clouds. Just had cold wind mix up with hot, humid air. May be spending a while in the basement.

Well, the weird clouds have become one massive grey dump of heavy rain. High winds but the rotation has slowed.
I think I’ll have that whiskey now.
