Very nice work!I wish I had the funds, time and experience/knowledge to do that kind of brick work! Let alone the great deck and rail work! I'm planning a much simpler deck that will use the same post and pier foundation as the cabin...figure 'keep it simple stupid' applies well for me But this is a some inspiring work!Thanks

As for the rock work it was learned out of neccessity rather than paying a mason some $30 hour. Really not that hard once you get started. As for the deck it is no more complicated than a cabin floor and most of the same principles apply with the exception of the deck flooring. I went with 6X6 for the railings as I didn't want weak railings that someone might get hurt on. The actualy railings are 2X6 with the standard pickets. My biggest challange was the varing widths of the two sides to figure the angles to the fireplace but I managed to get it fairly close. Thanks OLJarhead for the compliment. If you ever want to venture into the rock work let me know I am sure you can do it and I would be more than glad to walk you through it.
