It took awhile but we finally got out this morning to finish Deck 2. To begin the day I rassled with the some of the deck blocks trying to attain some semblance of them all being close to level. If there is one thing that drives me crazy when watching any of those home & garden TV shows is when they start an outdoor project and make leveling the area they're working in look easy - I've stopped watching those shows and my self esteem has improved immensely thank you very much. Be that as it may once the blocks were in the neighborhood of being level Carol, Ian and I began working on the framing and by lunchtime we were ready to do the deck floor.
For the most part we finished up around 5:45pm though Ian will be applying more deck screws some evening this week.
Once Ian saw how big the area across the two decks combined he thought it would make a terrific mini-badminton court so expect a blog in the near future of my debilitating injuries from that activity.

Wow - that's like a super deck now! If I ever get to come back to live in Maine - I know who to call for decking!
