Sitting on the patio on Monday & Tuesday morning was very satisfying -- really great to be 'pretty much done' with this monster. I'd really love a little temporary crummy table out there on which to set my coffee/books/notebook. We're looking for 2 chairs, maybe adirondaks, and a little table to comfortably contain us. I'm still thinking about the possibility of dining outdoors, since we won't get swarmed by mosquitoes here.
A neighbor came over & critiqued our work -- said he didn't like the blunt ends on the arbor beams or the square ends on the rafter end design. I think he's a house painter... so whatever, thanks guy. I think it didn't turn out too bad for our first construction project!-A

Awesome job! Too bad that guy doesn't like blunt, square ended things because that probably describes the shape of his head perfectly. Not that I would know. Congrats though - it looks great and I know that your landscaping skills will make it even more spectacular! :)
Looks great to me. I like the pavers you used. When are you going to get to Gramma's in Paradise and get hers done?
