Finished the stairway half-wall surround...

Lots of gluing, screwing, and nailing for good measure ; )

I was able to run a 2x6 down from the free end of the half wall, through the floor sheathing and sister it with some lag screws into the glulam directly below the surround.  Hopefully that will keep it strong...

Internet is up...

... And I've started back on the house.

Bolted the trellis supports into the structure of the house.  The trellis across the tops of the supports will be a Yellow Cedar like the upper deck rail - but, I won't put those up until later in the Summer.

Time to start...

The last of the remaining snow is nearly melt...


I guess it's time to get back to work this week...

Looking forward to seeing...

My old pal, Mr. Grumpy, as he chases the gals around for a couple of months...
