Two or three weeks ago we made the decision to tear down our old deck and replace it with a covered patio. Garth took out most of the deck except for steps. and a small landing.
On the 15th we got a sod cutter and within two days we had the space cleared of grass.
On the 20th Les Allan, our contractor came and put in the forms and got ready for the cement.
First thing Tuesday morning, the cement truck arrived and by evening, we had a nice cement patio.
Early Wednesday morning a large truck pulled up across the street and the large beams and lumber for the project were unloaded.
On Thursday a crew of 3 men arrived and by the time we got home from the temple, we had the roof and extended eaves on the house.
On Friday they worked more on the eaves and built the abbreviated redwood deck and stairs.
Today (Monday) the railing was put on the stairs.
We realize that we have built a temptation for the grandchildren so there will have to be some rules to keep - especially some active young boys
- off the roof.
