Now the Stairs

Paul uncovered the stairs yesterday.  The original crumbling bricks were covered in cheap concrete and were later covered in carpeting before finally being covered in a bad, uneven wood job.  His job now is to create a good, even set of stairs down to the backyard.

Deck Done

The deck got finished yesterday.  Looks fantastic. We opted for a natural look instead of covering it in paint.  They start on the stairs to the pool next.

Riding the Rogue

Some of the family braved the Rogue River and took a ride on the popular Hellgate Jet Boat tour.  Still early in the season but they benefitted by seeing half a dozen bald eagles, multiple cranes and ospreys.  Lunch at the lodge down stream and then a wet and wild ride back to the dock.
