Biggest party night of the year

Biggest party night of the year

I spent the night before Thanksgiving drilling holes in our deck posts. The cable rails will be 1/8", so the holes are 1/4". And we will have double posts on the corners with spacers in between; I overdrilled the holes on the spacers (1/4") so that passing the cables through three sets of holes wont be impossible.


Stained and ready to go:


Assembling the double posts:


Sarahs brother Greg on the business end of the ladder (he was in charge of bolting the posts to the deck):

Grouted the tub in the basement last night; pretty tedious job. And you cant really stop once you start, so I had to finish before I could eat...

I had 3x6 subway tile from two different companies (two boxes left over from Simplex that came with the house, and then two boxes that I bought at HD). They are ever so slightly different in color and size. Doesnt appear different in person, but it actually comes through a bit in this pic (the top two rows below the window).
