We are tying both ends of this deck into the rockeries to help blend the house into the environment.
The pressure treated window bucks show the screws that will be covered in concrete and will then hold the wood tight. Downstairs we used galvanized nails, larger in size, but fewer in quantity. Turns out they didn’t hold very well.
What good’s a wheel, if it can’t be reinvented a time or two.
The Dingo was parked too close to a sprinkler and a leaky gas cap welcomed about a gallon of water to the gas tank. I hadn’t sucked a siphon hose since the gas crisis during Jimmy Carter’s regime. But, hey maybe I could put that talent to some good use in the current gas crisis . . .
To his credit, the head floor polishing guy saw the condition of the bedroom floors and agreed that three were not up to his standard. We are working out a strategy to keep everybody happy. It is refreshing for a contractor to accept responsibility.
