Uh Oh!!!!!!!

So I wanted to add a photo for posterity that shows my husband's ingenious solution! 'Jack 'of all trades :)











We discovered a very disturbing situation with our wonderful new deck....on the south side it had dropped about 4 inches! After taking off a few deck boards, we discovered the support board attached to the block wall, had detached from the wall....

Doesn't look like we will run out of projects...We jacked it up....had trouble fitting jacks under the board, so Dad rigged up a pulley system where he balanced a large jack on top of the wall, pulled the deck up...we had to do it in sections...there were some painful crunching sounds....now all he has to do is put some larger bolts into the wall and assume they will hold it...
