A Dry Heat

... and what a heat it is! Jack and I are still in Tucson, still working on my deck and skirting for my cottage, and, as the temperatures climb, we are experiencing a heat-related adventure! Actually, it's not all that bad. We've been very careful to stay well-hydrated, we try to work out of the sun as much as we can, and we take frequent breaks!

Here are some pics! Jack working on the steps:


Me using the framing nailer:


The deck beginning to come together:


More wood to be converted into decking:



Today, after a long day of cutting and applying siding to the deck and laying our first bits of Trex onto the steps, we dined at New York Pizza and then went to DQ! It doesn't get much better than this.

  1. Hey, sis...I would melt in that heat!!! Even with DQ. I hope you get done soon so you can come back this way just in time for our heat and humidity!! LOL.

    Looks like you are progressing well and keeping Jack busy which is great. But, don't wear him out...we need to be able to use him some too, you know. xoxoxoxox Love you! Sis.

  2. Well right now it is definately a wet heat here. Wish it would cool down and/or get dryer.
