UPDATED W/PHOTOS Step #2 - build the whole damn thing just to tear it all down





I would like to have had my next post be great photos of my new deck and shed, all nice and built and ready for hot tub placing and yard reorganization...BUT NO!
Our obstacles:
1-Busy Body Neighbor who can't keep his nose in his own business
2-City code enforcers who are to the letter of the law
3-Contractors who don't find out code prior to building said shed and deck
4-Home owner who thought she got the code right, but misinformed on two items that ended up being HUGE items.

AHHHHHHH!

I have photos of the almost finished product, photos of the project torn back down, and I will have photos in the next few days of new yard placement of said shed, finished deck with extra code criteria fluff added, and a big fat ugly eye sore of a concrete slab that I might need decorating ideas for.

When I mention PROJECT...please, for the love of all things holy...remind me of the past 10 days.

Step One:Make a mess!








We decided to start a project. Shed and hot tub deck to come. Thought I would show you the step by step process. :)

Add rain/snow to dog poop/aerated yard and you get a muddy mess...then add wood and trex and concrete and you have an even bigger mess.

Guess we have step one down! :)
