St. Croix Dream Job

 

Here, on a top edge of a coolie overlooking the St. Croix River near Scandia, MN we built a porch, deck, stairway and hot tub.  This was a labor of love. When we tired we stretched and looked ten miles upriver. 

 

Here's how we found it, great location but completely unused vista

 

Now we have the ledger and the hot tub slab in place as well as all footings dug and poured.

 

Roof of future porch goes on.

 

Framing of upper deck with treated joists

 

Here's Billy with the view of the St. Croix below.

 

Gregg and Bill install the cedar 2x6 boards on upper deck.

 

Lower deck is framed.

 

Gregg & Lena take a break for lunch. This kind of job, this kind of customer makes this job make sense.

 

Lower deck is framed and sanded. Hot tub goes in, gets plumbed, wired for electricity

                    Stairway and railing are installed.Screen goes on the porch.  Tub is filled                with water, heated and the carpenters go away.
