New Deck! / Patio Nuevo!
Behold, our new deck! / Mira, nuestra patio nuevo!

View from the corner by our patio door / Vista desde la esquina al lado de la puerta



Other side. See how wide the rails are? Great for drinks :) / otro lado. Mira que anchos son los topes de las barandas, muy bueno para bebidas :)



View from the backyard. The space under the deck is where we want to put some rain barrels, we are also hoping to get a very small shed for our tools next to the house where the hot tub was. The builders cut out a little hole in the deck so we could hook up the hose. Also notice how the railings dont go all the way to the deck floor. This is going to make cleaning the deck off a ton easier since we can just sweep the leaves right of the deck.

Vista del jardin de atras. El espacio debajo del patio es donde queremos poner algunos recipientes de lluvia. Tambien queremos conseguir una cabanita para nuestras herramientas en donde estuvo la spa. Los constructores hicieron un agujero en el patio para la mangera. Tambien se ve que las barandas son un poco mas cortas que el piso del patio. Estara mas facil para limpiar el patio con las barandas asi, podimos barrer las hojas por todos lados.



Here are some views from our bedroom window on the second floor. Filling the bird feeder will be much easier now :) / Aqui estan algunas vistas desde la ventana de nuestro dormitorio en el segundo piso. Poniendo comida para las aves en la casita va a ser mas facil ahora :)





Next we need to put several coats of stain on the deck. Since the rainy season is fast approaching this is likely to consume a few evenings / weekends before we leave for Germany

Ahora necesitamos pintar el patio. La estacion de lluvia viene pronto, asi que creo que vamos a pintar durante unas noches y/o fin de semanas antes de salir a Alemania

Yesterday we went hiking at Saddle Mountain. This trail has been closed for most of the hiking season due to extensive storm damage from this past winter. There was a cloud hanging over the mountain all day, we only got up to the first peak in the saddle and turned back because the weather was crappy, and the last 1/2 mile is pretty sketchy even in good weather. We did see some beautiful wild flowers along the way though.. sorry, no pics

Ayer fuimos a hiking en Saddle Mountain. Este camino fue cerrado por lo mejor de la estacion de hiking porque una gran tormenta en el invierno derrumbo muchos arboles gigantes. Ayer hizo mal tiempo en la cima, asi que solo fuimos a la primera cima de las dos. Miramos algunas flores bonitas en el camino, pero no tomamos fotos.

Thats it for now! Esto es todo por ahora!

Thanks! We are going to Germany at the end of Sept for 10 days for our honeymoon :) We're renting a car and touring around Bavaria, including a stop in Munchen during Oktoberfest :-D
