My Spring Break vacation project

[Grant Davis]

Last week my family and my wife's parents went to Hilton Head Island, SC for Spring Break. The house we stay in belongs to friends of my in-laws who allow us to stay in it for a week. For rent we usually do little odds and end jobs for the owners. Two years ago we painted the upstairs bathroom and the hallway, last year we painted a bedroom and another bathroom. This year we tackled a build of the first section of a deck at one end of the pool. Here are the results after our week in the sun. The deck is 15' in the front, 19'6" in the back and 12' deep front to back.

Grant,
Welcome to the Creek, and an after the fact "welcome to the Lowcountry"! I'm located in Beaufort, SC, so the next time you're down this way, let me know and we'll give you all a tour.

At least you didn't build that project during the hot weather season!

Nice work, Buckeye!!

Nice work! So if that is the first section, what are your spring break plans for the next few years?:)
