Deck Time

Got the deck piers dug and poured yesterday,  its time to build the humongous deck. 1400 s.f. of pure outdoor bliss with an outdoor fireplace and outdoor kitchen. We already have all our deck furniture becouse beautiful stuff came into the store at just the right time. The gorge House has 2300 sf interior space, and 1700 sf of outdoor decks. This is becouse we love being outside in all kinds of weather. The deck is 17' off the ground at it's highest point, and is covered under 1000sf of metal roofing. It really is the escence of the house, perched on the edge of the bluff towering over the Gorge. I will be tempted to just stop working and enjoy the deck when we complete it. But the bank would not like that. I have gone overboard in the size of the piers, a lesson learned building the family cabin. The deck will not fall off the mountain. The next steps are #1- build the deck. #2-build scafolding inside the awesome room. #3-set beams and set rafters. #4-get the septic system rolling. I have a crew coming next week sometime, and I know things are fixen to happen fast.
