The ground has so much acid in the soil that wood rots so quickly when it is in or on the ground

Even those treated posts uh?

I woulda put the posts 4 feet into the ground with one of them pads under each one, and then filled the holes around the posts with 3/4 gravel to keep the water from setting on em....but it looks good. Decks are cheap and add a whole new world of enjoyment to a home.  :wink:

So what'd you do Bill take pics?  :laf: :laf:

Decks are like that Bill. The rain will hold off until it's built & you want to use it. Then all hell breaks loose from above!! :laf:

Very nice work Mr. Bill. When ya round the grills up I want a ribeye, baked tater and a cold beer. (OK....Two cold beers) Can we let cam walk out in the edge of the woods and shoot the paintball guns at him? (OK.....He can take Rudy w/ him too) LOL
