A few hiccups, though. We originally were going to have a pergola about were our concrete pad is. However, we expanded the original deck design to cover the whole patio and we couldn’t keep the pergola without a post in front of our backdoor. But the most important for us is to have the right design.

Also, the wood arrived late. I guess one of the guys at Lowes was sick and they were backed up. But here is the delivery:

So tomorrow, they start framing bright and early.
