WHAT ARE YOU DOING TODAY - WAYDT (PICS)

[flannel slut]

More of a, what have you been doing with your past couple weekends? My old man used to have his own landscaping business and have helped him w a number of entry way/deck jobs over the years. We’ve been mulling it over for a little bit now but have been wanting to upgrade my side entry way from its original stone cast stair casing to a small deck. It’s been slow moving but genuinely cherishing the time spent w my pops tackling this project.

Weekend 1
Sawed off the cast iron rails, poured some cement for the foundation and started the frame work for the platform of the deck

Weekend 2
Realized we needed to re-route the fucking drain so we got a connector to snake the gutter out the opposite end of the breezeway entry (this took a lot longer than anticipated and worse, required an additional trip to Lowe’s ️ but I digress), finished off the rest of the platform frame work and laid down the composite boards.

Weekend 3 TBD but looking like next weekend where we’ll finish off the stairs. Hopefully

@catdad1 kayaking early am is fantastic. Even boring Ohio has lots of animal life out and about before/around dawn

@CosmoSix5 we have been talking about taking the kayaks out for a while. Windows gonna dwindle down before we know it and the cold will be here for good.

Wandering around Bembridge on the Isle of Wight

This was a church until they got bored of it being a church, and knocked the nave down.

And painted the seaward facing wall white, it is now a navigational aid to get into Bembridge harbour. I do like a bit of upcycling........
