I said I wouldn't talk about my deck anymore but this is too titillating. My deck is nearly erect!Are you kidding? Still a long way to go here in Florida.
My HOA should have replaced my deck 5 months ago but delayed with a different contractor. I'm missing the entire summer without my deck?
I won't talk about my deck anymore after this but it was strong and tall, a deck for a king (or possibly a queen). When rebuilt it will face the sun overlooking a creek and protected area with otters, turtles, fish, too many raccoons, squirrels, an array of birds, and an occassional iguana.
It should be built very soon I am told. The permits have cleared.
As you can see, I have a massive deck. Here's a view from my office chair:

astarted a tiered garden on the left side here,

Pardon my enthusiasm. I've been without this for 3 years now and I will use this area more than any other part of the house.
They didn't trample the biggest azalea. There used to be 12 ft of red blooming azaleas about 8 ft high.

I will spare you my family vacation photos.
