Looks like it's gonna be really nice! I don't envy Steve his post hole digging job - I've only dug about five post holes, and that was enough to last me a gooood long while! Of course, the ground here is so rocky that I did almost as much with my hands and a little shovel as I did with the digging thing. Ugh. Had sore hands for days!

Yes...about half way through he asked me to get him some motrin. I tried to help him best I could (his back bothers him sometimes.) I did things like pick up the posts, which are 8' 4x4" posts and drop them in the holes. I also picked up some of the cement bags and mixed them, after he asked for the motrin. The bags were 80lb bags and when I would pick one up, I thought my eyes would pop out...but it was only a half dozen or so...

My most important task was the leveling, because I'm real nitpicky about it! LOL
