Deck-o-rama 2007

Our old front step was moldering and shaking and generally rotting off the side of the house. Dad and Mom came out for a delightful Sunshine Coast week of deck design and construction. Apparently the next generation of pressure-treated wood doesn't like metal fittings that arn't Z-max galvanized. Oh, and stainless steel screws are really expensive, but they're nice. We made it up as we went along, we undid a few little blunders, and we managed a not-half-bad bit of building.\

Buff picked up some boxwood and an orphan azalia to spruce things up too.
