OK, the deck is still not done. Taylor had to leave early to go meet Sarah for some chores he has to do around his house. There is about 1 more hour of power washing and then comes the staining and sealing. It is going to be so beeeuuutiiiful when it is done. Linda promised she would grill me a small piece of salmon when we have our picnic to celebrate its completion. Oh, and we just found out that the big giant pine tree on the other side of our house has to be cut completely down! Now there won't be any trees at all in our yard. Linda is sad, but I said she should be thankful that we have a giant 5 bedroom house all to ourselves... even without any trees it is wrong to grumble and complain. (Taylor and Sarah on the beach during their vacation a few weeks ago. She is so pretty, no wonder he wanted to leave quickly to meet her!)
