Almost Done...

Alyosha and I have put in 62 hours on our little project so far.  A whole garbage can of sawdust has already gone out.  In the end, the front steps will probably support an elephant securely.

I'm almost embarrassed to show the before pictures, but here are a few.  They may hold an elephant now, but I'm kinda surprised they held my 30 lb. daughter before.

Should be all done tomorrow.

Full album here if you want to see the whole process.  And Alyosha's awesome pantshorts.
