Installed the last two sets of longitudinals and the final 24 feet of deck boards in the long section between the third landing and the 15° bend that is at the walkway halfway point.  Some of the deck boards that I put on today are a bit slimy from sitting stacked on top of one another under a tarp for the past many weeks. Was maneuvering the hand truck late afternoon, stepped on one of the slimy illegitimate sons, and took a tumble… right off the walkway.  Never fear, the hand truck landed on top of me, so it came through  undamaged.  Though it was only a couple of feet to the ground, I can tell already that there will be some sore spots tomorrow.
