The Deck...

I have a feeling that my deck is not going to go as planned. Ignorance and my tendency to procrastinate have pushed this project back. I am just now submitting the proper plans to the city for a permit. That's kinda a messed up process. You must submit plans to show that you meet city code, but you only find out what the code is after you submit and get it sent back. The requirements are not listed anywhere easy to find. My Goodness! I would hate to have information like that just floating around on the Internet for just any law abiding citizen to find!!!
O.K. I'm done venting. With all that said, I am still hoping to make progress this week. It will be so very nice to finally have a place to relax in our back yard. It just doesn't look like it will happen for my birthday.

I will keep you posted.
