Steps and Fence update

OK so it's amazing how fast we got the deck up and put together in two days with 6 or 7 people helping, and sad how long it's taken Marnie and I to get from that point to where we are now, but hey, it's progress!!
Keep in mind that we've only worked on it between rain and after work for 2 or 3 hours/day (not every day). The steps are the hard part. Maybe the hardest part because of how we're doing them -- they wrap around 3 corners that are slightly off from 45 degree angles, and slightly different from each other.
After these pics were taken, I cut the last stringer and we started getting the back panels of the stairs on. We're doing those so that we can install the LIGHTING (!) in them before it gets too dificult to get at them with the steps in the way. We decided to NOT cut the left side of the stairs back into the deck near the end of where the benches will go because it was too difficult to figure out. That side will be square to the deck instead, and have a railing for those who might need that.



It's looking good if I do say so myself!
