Pretty close...?

Things to do today so I was not by the site until early afternoon. 

Look.... the front deck railings are up. And uh, I of course meant a bottom railing yesterday, not a halfway up railing. Top and bottom like a fence and the spindles will just get nailed on like fence boards - except there will be gaps between the spindles not like most fence boards!

I think the BBQ will look good over there.....

And maybe a chair or two over there.....

With the front deck done (until spindles arrive), the crew were busy in the back.

There was a consultation again as to where the stairs will be...

The stairs will be 8 ft long... nice and wide. A good friend suggested making the stairs go all the way across, but I wanted some private sitting area. 

Sometime in the future I even may take out half the stairs and build a ramp sideways toward the driveway.... The plan would be to have no stairs needed to enter the house at the back.

The big deck gets smaller when you put railings on it.... I say that because I used to have a huge deck at my last house.... But I am downsizing.

This little corner might have a little bistro table and chairs... maybe... And maybe a lattice to hide the neighbour's trailer... Yes the outhouse will be gone! I was going to build sometype of natural plant/shrub/vine screening into the yard by the rocks, so might not need it on the deck.

There will be plenty of room to sit on the stairs and drink my morning coffee.

Here is the view from inside the door....

Speaking of inside.... Another prime coat on the walls.

Almost time to start the floor.

When the spindles are in place the neighbours can hide.

The outside rock wall is almost complete.... Yes there will be grout and protective sealant, but that can happen after the floors inside, (same guy doing the job).

Once again... My little house on a basement is looking good!

It's pretty close .....?
