Ant Damage Part 3 - The Finale'

It was three days of hard work, some discussing of the right way to make sure the railings stand up properly and voila', the front porch is completely done!  

This is how the porch looked after all the concrete work was done



We put on the stringers



When all the stringers were on we (meaning Lyn) nailed on the treads for the stairs.



We started making the railings for the left side ,





 
Please note my shadow on the left - I think I need photography help!


and then we worked on the right side 

 


and then we were done!





We think we did a pretty good job considering neither one of us is a carpenter and we NEVER did anything like this before.  The treated lumber has to "weather" for a few  months, and then we will stain it to match the house.

Well friends, that is the saga of the Ant Damage.
