Quiet, but not Idle

You may have noticed that I haven’t done too many weddings this spring…well, there’s a reason for that :) ? I decided to take the spring off to do some things around the house, specif­i­cally build a new 16×16 deck to replace our old rickety 7×13 one. The Inlaws were in town for a week to help out and we got the main part of the deck done despite the ridiculous amount of rain we have had.

During the building, I set up a camera to take a photo every 30 seconds, and then strung them all together into a stop-motion video that you can see below. I still have to finish the handrails, benches and planters (I’ll show that stuff in a second video) but for now, enjoy!
