The 2-day deck

As a wedding present, Jeremy's dad offered to build us a deck. We had a deck but it was super small and a deck more suited for a downtown condo rather than our country home.

We still need to finish some additional details like steps on both sides. But we've already put chairs back there and when it was done last night we sat out, surveying the view while shivering and sipping on a celebratory beer.
