Deck and porch

Bob Goodman (who was the lead guy building our house) came back from Oregon to work with Sean on our deck and covered porch. These come off the south side of the house, and a few weeks ago we placed three multi-ton boulders as footers for the support posts. Cheaper than concrete!

They have the frame and joists of the deck in, and by tomorrow afternoon we should be enjoying a beer in the sun on the completed deck. After that, they will work on the covered porch, which will be a 10 foot extension of the existing roof line. We're excited to see this done as the south side of the house looks pretty chopped off.
