So I have wanted some french doors and a deck since I bought he house last year, this was a good time to get it done since I am leaving on my honeymoon in two weeks I figure I can get this done and enjoy it when I get home. So last night I picked up the doors which were on sale for $219.00 down from $499.00 decided to let it rip and start doing it at 9:00 last night. Woke up this morning and finished her up. Here are the basic plans of my deck. Heres a few pics of me and my friend Steve getting her done. ![http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn006.jpg](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn006.jpg) ![http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn009.jpg](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn009.jpg) ![http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn010.jpg](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn010.jpg) ![http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn013.jpg](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn013.jpg) ![http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn017.jpg](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn017.jpg) ![http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn024.jpg](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn024.jpg) ![http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn028.jpg](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn028.jpg) ![http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn029.jpg](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn029.jpg) ![http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn032.jpg](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn032.jpg) ![http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn035.jpg](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn035.jpg) ![http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn036.jpg](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn036.jpg) ![http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn037.jpg](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/angandshawn037.jpg) ![http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/deckblue1.jpg](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/deckblue1.jpg) ![http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/deckplan51.jpg](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/deckplan51.jpg) ![http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/deckplan61.jpg](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y189/716pro/deckplan61.jpg) ---

looks like it will def add some appeal to the house. Have you picked out stains or will you be using the particle board/laminate (idk what its called it looks like decking)? Hope you got a permit! although it shouldnt cause any problems ---

As of friday, Elmwood and cheektowaga had the most remaining. The 6068 Miniblind and the 6068 15-lite are both $219. If your really interested I can check all the stores tomorrow when I get in. ---

My wife(still sounds funny to say) wanted it big enough to put a 8 person table, bar, outside day bed etc on it. My yard is pretty big so this really doesn’t effect it to much. ---
