I finished up work on a few cabinets for my dad at about 10 o’clock the night before I left for Rapid City to help him with their deck. The fun didn’t stop there. Three weeks and 250 hrs of hot and humid work later, and I left them with a nearly finished deck. My schedule for the summer was tight and I left them with some landscaping and a few other loose ends to tie-up, but by and large it was ready for grilling and lounging. Here are a few shots to show the transformation.
