Time for an update since I'm sitting around the house sick today.

Last weekend was a very productive weekend. We took Friday and Monday off so we had a 4 day weekend, although Saturday was kind of a bust due to the rain, which I was thankful for.

One of the first projects was to put a corrugated tin roof under the top deck and make the lower deck weather resistant. probably going to run a gutter along the exposed edge of the tin. Flashed around the 6x6 posts and sloped it using a 2x4 flat at the mid-point and one on edge at the outer edge of the deck. The back wall that you see there will be covered in cedar shakes stained lighter than the trim.



We finished up all the trim around the windows and all the corner trim that we could reach with my 24' ladder.



On the North side we will put cedar shakes around the entrance way in between those two vertical pieced of cedar trim and the rest of that side will be corrugated tin.



We built an 8'x8' deck off the kitchen for an outdoor kitchen area. It is on temporary supports right now, but there will be some 6x6 posts in the corners that will run up about 8' above the deck and they will support a small roof that will cover the cooking area and the grills.



Got to take time to enjoy the sun rise with a steaming cup of java...
