Closer view after day 1
The beams and outer edges of the octagon with a few joists. (Couldn't do as much today because it rained all morning.)
The octagon with the rest of the joists.
Part of the decking. We had to stop because the rest of the decking they delivered was the wrong size!
Close up of the herringbone design
Front flower bed...looking good!
I can't even remember what these are called but I like the color.
White lantana
Rose shrub
Multi-color lantana

Most of the octagon decking on but not trimmed
Most of the main decking on but not trimmed
Decking complete!
This is what it will look like all the way around.
The left side is complete, the right side still needs balusters. This step takes a while because there are a lot of cuts to make. Notice how the bottom of the posts are cut at an angle to match the bottom part of the balusters (see next pic).
Balusters
The deck is much closer to being finished!
The balusters still need to be added to the stairs on this side.
The octagon with railings and tiki torches. A table will eventually go here.
The main part of the deck. A grill will probably go on that side.
