Monday: Waiting Game...but holes dug.

Well Rona said my lumber would be here by 1:00 PM....showed up at 4:00 PM...oh well..in the meantime I saved a bit of coin by digging all the deck post holes by hand. Only took about 30 minutes per hole..the ground was actually pretty soft and easy to work. The last foot (4' holes ) is a bitch because the holes are only 12" wide, so I went and bought a post hole digger. I can use it to dig the fence post holes when the time comes. (next project). Not a bad day today but windy as hell. Luckily the wind was from the north and the deck is on the south side of the house. Tomorrow I finish the holes, set the tubes and mix the concrete, oh fun.
