PUTTING IN POSTS

Real work began on the deck today.

Darrell began setting the posts, which is much easier said than done.  Since the deck is not square, where the posts should be involved a lot of measuring and head scratching.  But, once we figured things out and set the first one, the next few were not quite so difficult.  And, after all, it's not a piano, it's just a deck.

On the last one of the day we discovered there was a buried chunk of concrete right where we needed to put the new post.  We dug all around it, decided we couldn't lift it out of there and just pushed it to one side and set the post and re-buried it.

Mr. Bentley supervised.






I had bean soup cooking in a slow cooker all day and made some flat bread.  It was a great end to the day.  (I'm sore and tired).




Didn't have much time for my 100dayproject2020:
