DUDE! That's totally awesome! I bet Cathy's gonna be spending lots of time out there, soaking in all the nature. After she takes you shopping for more patio furniture, of course! ;D

Randy,that looks great. I know how much work went into that deck. But imagine how much rock that would display if you had put a 2x 12 on top. ;D.Good job

Already shopping for more furniture, mainly chairs. A larger table will be built by myself that will match the deck, with a larger umbrella in the middle.

Wow! Randy, that is huge and super cool!!! No wonder Cathy calls you multi-talented! I'll bet you'll find a way to work some rocks into the design. I like seeing Harlie's little chair on there too. WTG!

Is there anyrting you cannot do at the highest level? Artistic painting on cars, cars tuning, wire wrapping, and now carpentry!
Beautiful, and I like how you left the timber just natural, unpainted.

Now, that is one amazing deck!!! Cathy will get a lot of study time out there and be able to enjoy it as well. Not sure it will make the subjects easier but she can take frequent breaks and look around. That should help with the dry subjects! Awesome job Randy! No wonder we haven't seen too much of you lately! Fran

Fran- funny you mentioned it, that's where she's been studying. I also go out there and sit every day after work, the entire deck is shaded by that really humongous tree. I'm really happy with the way that it turned out, I didn't use any plans or even draw up any, it was all in my head (brain damage and all) so it's really cool that I didn't screw it up. ;D lol Thanks for the comments y'all!!
