Power Tools... and Soft Fuzzy Kitthehs...

Well, here we are- Day 3 # (and maybe day # 4 & # 5 as I am getting Weary of thinking of Nifty Carpentery type Nouns...) and the decking on the Pat-E-Io is Coming right along I must say...

Actually,  it better be coming right along cause I was beginning to feel as if I was in an 'Outer Limits' episode of the 'Never-Ending Lumberyard Visit'.

So hold on tight.
Heeeere we go !!



Drilling, Drilling, A Drilling we Will go...




 Don't-cha love the mossy corner of the house ?
Nobody can ever say I am not Eco friendly...




Oh Yeah... we only use them there High End type of Modern Conveniences...




One Beauteous new not-rotten board at a time.



Red Drill is for 'Drilling'
Green drill is for 'Sinking Deck Screws'
No...
or is it ?
Green Drill is for 'Drilling'
and Red drill is...

Never mind---




Kuchi doing her Customary End of day inspection...




Babylon expresses her Op-inion...




 Kuchi is Sauntering... Now that Her favorite Chair is back where she can Inspect her Domain, she is Happier !!







This Bring us, Precious Browsers, The End of Day # 3...

And Bright and early the Next Day
(8:30 am is Early for me. For I am Delicate... And the Sun burns my Pale Ghostly Skin...)

Day number FOUR...




Sawing Corner Brackets...




Nailing Metal Hanger Thingys to hold the under boards that hold up the Decking/Floor...




Almost done getting the under holder cross-beams in...




And putting down the last few 2"x6"x10' Decking boards...

HA !! Lookit that Too Cool Carpentry term I just Flung Upon Ya !!




The Last One...
Wheeeeee !!!!




Poor Kuchi is Almost becoming used to the Noise and Fracas filled days...




But Poor Lil' Alice-Ala-baster- Alice from the Palace, is still Dubious...
"Alice go back and hide some more Mama.... See Ya..."




Kuchi is " Tra-La-La-laaa la...
?? !!??
Oh No, here they come Again... Mama !!"




Working on replacing the Grate/Drain...
This is for water coming down the hillside... It goes under the porch into a Drainpipe then into the Storm Sewer thingy...




Ezample of new Concrete Paving Stones-
Are you Ready ????
- that can be Painted !!! Yes !!




Putting up the Railing and bannisters...




Loooking Goood !!!!




This is how Alice Felt at the end of day # 4...
And a fairly Decent Reflection om how her Mama felt too...

So Waaayyyy back up at the beginning of this Magnum Opus I made the statement day # 5 would be included in this post...

I lied

I am Tired just reliving it thru all these Picture-Memories...

Besides-
Gotta save Some Excitement for another Post !!

It's looking good. I love the way cats have to 'supervise' everything. Enjoy the peace and quiet when it comes! Jx
