Another cold day (30° overnight) = no bugs! Put on 16 feet of deck boards, then dug four more holes for in-ground posts. After the posts, stringers, and railing posts were in place, stopped work on the walkway for the day in order to do some surveying down at the waterfront. Quickly determined that the beautiful, detailed, so carefully thought out plans for the waterfront that I drew up last winter won’t fit in the available real estate, at least not without a ridiculous amount of excavating. So spent several hours this evening squeezing my beautiful, detailed, so carefully thought out plans so that everything will fit with only a crazy amount of excavating.
