Jeff built our first bridge yesterday! And I helped! I don't have a ton of time to write right now, but I think pictures speak louder in this case anyway.
Squaring it up:
He got all but the end pieces of decking on (those needed to be ripped down and shaped) but the dark won!
The next morning: FINISHED!
(eventually the area between the decks will be landscaped, with a nice, stepping-stone path down to the bridge)
