Nice Weather = Projects

Now that the weather is nice, Rob's busy with his projects again. Our salmon-colored fence and deck in the front yard have made Rob crazy since the day we moved in. There was also a matching salmon-colored screen door that he replaced last fall. The paint on the fence is peeling and the deck had some structural issues so they did need to be fixed or replaced. Here is what it looked like.



It doesn't look too bad really but as I said, it was a mess up close and the deck had some boards that were rotted out. Rob thought that this would be a nice simple project for him and his dad to work on while his parents were visiting. So here they are on Day 1, ripping up the steps and deck.



A lot of progress was made on Days 1 and 2.



However, on Day 3, there was a big problem.



They were unable to continue, obviously, and Pop left before they got a chance to work on it anymore. Rob's kept at it for the past two weeks and we now have something that looks like a very nice deck.



He still has to finish up the step and stain everything but he is getting close to being done. I'm so proud of him- he has worked so hard on it and it looks great!
