Decks

I'm not very good at taking before and after pictures.
The deck on our house was old and rotten. It was quite dangerous with big gaping holes you could fall through, so last Summer we tore it down and sawed it up into firewood.
Here is a picture of the old deck.




Willie is building us a new deck & I love it.


A house really should have decks on all sides, one for sun, one for shade. You can never have to many decks, or to many chairs. Don't you agree?

Yes, I totally agree. I want to build a bigger one on our house. That wraps around the side and has benches built in.

Love the picture of the old deck. Too funny! Hope it's keeping you warm.
Yes. I agree with you and everyone else. Decks are very important and one of these days, in the summer probably, I'm going to sit on that deck with you and ponder your lake...

Your new deck is very nice.

I want a small deck off of my bedroom, with French doors leading out. Thankfully I have a very handy husband that could easily get the job done. Money is very tight, so I can patiently wait.

I agree with you re: porches on each side.
