I feel like I've been hit by a train this morning. I'm thinking playing racquetball was a bad idea last night.

Looks good, Lars. I reclaimed a path through the English ivy and bamboo last night. The steps had disappeared. It's 70 with a rain this morning, 50% chance of thunderstorms later on.

Yeah....but this 37(almost 38) year old was running circles around a 29 year old for most of the night until I ran out of gas in the sixth game.

The back deck sounds like fun.......

I bet your opponent felt very strange. The point of the game is to hit the ball against the wall, not run circles around the guy!

You know what I meant smart ***!! Isn't it time for you to take your Geritol and go play shuffle board with the other senior citizens?

ya....its going to be both longer(deck) and shorter boards(more steps) and A LOT more end caps(approx 90)......at least I won't have to lay on my back to install the boards on the hidden fasteners track...

the one good thing is I can do one board runs without cuts/joints in between

I'm ready for linch.

Not too sure about this 3 day work week. Thought it would be perfect, but I may see about cutting it to 2.
