Will it ever end?
The deck is progressing nicely, despite the fact that we fucked off most of yesterday. My brother-in-law, whom is helping me had other obligations and couldn't arrive until 4:00pm. Jewel also had a grocery store run to make and had to leave me alone with her friend and her friend's husband, with a semi-full cooler/fridge. This turned out to be a big mistake, as the three of us had nothing to do but sit in 95 degree temperatures and drink. And drink we did. We did manage however to get the deck complete to the point of only needing the set of steps from deck #1 to deck #2 and the lattice on deck #2. Not too shabby for the size deck that it is (26x20). Saturday, I about died from heat exhaustion from the temperature and the fact that I'm a slacker and am not used to manual labor/physical exertion. I was ordered to eat chips (salt), drink three bottles of water and dip in the pool for 15 minutes. I came out a new man, and worked another 4 hours, ending at 10 pm following an exchange run at Home Depot.
Tried a new beer by MGD called Chill. Good shit Maynard, it's beer, salt and tequila wrapped up in one nice little package!
Pictures will follow!!!

Tequila eh? hmmmmmmmmm
No, I fucked up. Turns out it's salt, lime and beer, no tequila. Of course we have ways of fixing that!
95 degrees in Chi-Town?
No wonder you almost dehydrated.
When was the last time the temperature even hit '80' over there?
Dude, I think you're mistaken about our weather here. It's regularly above 80 around here in the summer. I wouldn't have an outdoor pool if it didn't get hot. We're actually further south than you are.
