The transformation will begin tomorrow...

That is going to be so nice!

Now if you were sunshine you would just leave the stones. Your old deck looks like Thing made it for woodworking class.

LOL muddy...They made quick work of that old thing!  I still have the cutting board Thing2 made in woodshop and the birdhouse he made fell apart about a year ago...

Are you picking on my rocks mud?

As fast as they are going you will be sipping iced tea out on the new deck this weekend!  Nice work!

The concrete guy hasn't called to set up the time yet.  I am supposed to go to Montana for a funeral, and I don't know how I'm going to swing it, if he wants to come out, and the hubby is leaving Sunday on a fishing trip...
 
I should fly home, but the cost is nearly $1000, ouch...I can drive but that's 13 1/2 hours, vs the 2 to fly.  I haven't had a chance to talk to my husband about it yet...
 
I want to get it all done and over with.  We'll have to do some lawn repair from the backhoe, but it's on a hillside that never grew grass well anyway.  Papa is already talking about pulling up the entire lawn, putting in a sprinkler system and redoing the lawn...that's going to be a chunk of change.  I would rather paint the house this summer...we'll see.
 
I just can't wait til I have a real patio furniture set and can set up the firepit again...(we had to stop using it because it kept killing the lawn)...

Waiting to see the finished product.
