Dave with power tools

Dave once again has a project to keep him busy. His friend from work, Rickey, lives on a little lake, or big pond, depending how you see it, but his dock was worn down and un-safe and he asked Dave for some help to re-face it.





Some pics of them taking off the old boards
































Jake is to afraid of the water, to chase the ducks that tease him so.....













So he just keeps watch, just in case they come ashore.






For those of you paying attention: Dave has different clothes on then he did on the pic's above. It isn't a different day..... while working on adding support boards an old one gave way and he fell into the water, and almost took me with him.


















Some action shots!




































After putting in more, much needed support boards.


























Dave showing off his cutting skills, though he thinks it is a mess.















Fast forward to putting on the deck boards.












The finished project ...... TA DA!!!!!!!!!! Rickey and his wife, Gerie, kept insisting we stop for Easter dinner, but Dave wanted to use every minute of sunlight to make sure it got finished! And we barely made it.
























Not to shabby for just one day, next Dave will build a deck and stairs for a gazebo.
