• On a much lighter note…

  
  

   

  
  

  My deck/spa project is finally complete!  I did every nail/board/screw/bracket/electrical fitting, etc. by myself. This will only be of note to those of you know me and know that I am somewhat “mechanically challenged.”   In fact, I was born without two of the most important male genes; the “mechanical gene” and the “sports gene”.  I am incapable of doing anything with tools without either seriously injuring myself or causing extensive property damage and I have absolutely no interest in Baseball, Football, Basketball, Hockey, etc. The only two sports I actually like to watch on television are gymnastics and ice skating. (NO…I am NOT gay).

  
  

   

  
  

  So here are the pictures during construction and after completion. You might notice that there is a picture of one of our dogs during construction. Unfortunately, we have not been able to locate him after the completion of the project. I can hear him barking softly from somewhere under the deck. I keep dropping dog food down through the spaces between the boards. I’m sure he’s fine.
