Test Driving Sucks, Unless You Test Drive a Porsche
I test drove a 2006 Porsche Boxster (very similar to these) today. To say it was awesome would be a significant understatement. I even seriously considered buying it, although calls to NR and ZS brought me back to my more functional senses and saved me from serious driver’s license trouble. You should all go out and test drive these things.
(Other People’s) Home Improvement: Building A Deck
In early May, I visited my friend NR. He and his wife (also a friend) just bought their first house. The house is very cool (e.g., old but recently renovated, one block from a lake, cool location, and more) but the deck was too small. As you can see in the first picture below, it was more of a platform/landing that was the space you would walk between the back door entrance and the stairs.
While the platform is nice, it’s no deck. And the backyard has more than enough space for a deck so we decided to extend it significantly (probably almost triple it’s previous size). In one long weekend, we did so and here are the after pictures.
