Thanks for the comments guys. I know how you feel Wayne. I too live vicariously through others....especially when I see cars on the street. Unfortunately no updates right now. A few weeks ago I decided I was going to extend our 3' x 5' porch to about 8' by 3'. Then I got the Home Depot flyer and saw some new railing I like, next thing I know I was planning a 400 square foot deck. So the past couple weeks I've been doing that. Even my wife was surprised when I spent a week while she was away on a course working on the deck and not in the shop working on my car. I think I'm getting domesticated
Here's a couple pics of the deck transformation:
