Most impressive and a shadow shot to boot!

It looks good and how nice it will be to relax in the fresh air with your beautiful views.

Looks like a great deck. We are just finishing a 10x20 one, and I'm spending way too much time out there, lollygagging. Hope you enjoy yours.

This will be a beautiful space. Are you and Mark working together on this? Keep those fotos coming, I love to see your daily progress.

Looking great! And moving along at a good clip, too. Will be fun to watch the full transformation.

What sort of platforms under doors? I'm trying to picture the ramada...
Great shape; tricky to make that arc.
Bravo, Mark! Brava, Charmaine.
