July 11, 2012 Brick & Old Wooden Stuff


 
A day trip to Covo gives Jeff a chance to do some easy work. He starts installing a brick patio in the garage, spanning the area from the porta john and wash station to the grill and wooden table and chairs. He also created a decorative railing for the loft to prevent middle of the night accidents.
