John had to work on Saturday, our normal "building" day, but he did take the day off today, and worked on the deck for a while. Like 4 hours. Then that was enough!
It may not seem like a lot, but the things he did today (with a little of my help), was: hang the rest of the joist hangers, hang the joists, screw the ends of the joists into the side supports, and bolt everything down! Everything took time! And there were lots of bolts!
Looking good!

| Lots and lots of bolts, and top and bottom and on the sides. |

| There are a total of 16 joists and hangers. Not huge, but just right for us. |
