So, back at the end of summer my wife asked me to fix a couple of
rotted boards on our porch. The attached pictures show what I ended
up with, which is a completely new porch.

Somewhere in here I dropped the idea of reusing the old boards and
bought new new (I now have a huge pile of cedar for birdhouses :-).

So, weeks later, the "repair" is done and we have a completely new
porch. Unfortunately, I had to finish building it in the rain, so it
probably won't get sealed until next summer.

Just proving the old adage, "there's no such thing as a simple job".

Looks good
