And this is how it currently looks. We still have the railing and more steps to build, but I think it looks great. It will be so much cooler this Summer. (It is just uder 1000 sq ft)

That's sooooo pretty!!!! Y'all did fabulous work -- I'm very impressed!!! Hiring a contractor to do a deck that size would cost a small fortune!

Great job!

You now have so much more living space, and you should see some returns on your cooling bill!

I am so happy with it, I waited for 7 years to get it built. (always something else needed to be done). So far it has cost us, including labor, around $8000. That's another reason it is taking so long, it's been a pay as we go project.
