New house (to me) summer deck/tree work

[Sigarms]

Bought my "new" house at the end of this past Feb.

MANY jobs needed to be done (and still not close to finishing), but quite happy with how my work has been progressing in between work.

This is a "before" shot looking from the basement out over the lower deck.

Same area afterwards.

All together, used over 30 gallons of deck sealant/stain on the trhee decks behind the house and the deck overlooking the pasture (per a post of mine asking a dumb question /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif).

Ended up taking over six trees down around the house (in the back). That was fun /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Still have alot of work to do, but enjoying it.

And thinking about, I might of wanted to place this in the "projects" forum /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

Thanks guys.

Would like to say it was easier than it looks, but first I had to pressure wash EVERYTHING which took longer than I'd like to admit (and had to wait until after I got the trees taken down).

Had to laugh, when I went to pick up the deck sealant/stain, my wife and I were "debating" how many 5 gallon containers of sealant we should get (started at 2 pails, then kept going till we hit six of them /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif).

Still have a little more to do, work has been hectic lately, and trying to wait for two more days of sunshine in the forecast.

Sig,

Nicely done!!!

Now, I have to ask... Do you work for a company that does all the before/after products (weight, hair growth...). In all the "before" images, the pics are all dark and gloomy. All the "after" pics are bright and sunny. Great marketing /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
