Boat Dock Project

Main Post for the boat dock are in Boat Dock Structure done for the first time. The guy that dug our pond was off a little on his gps for the water level and this pic is taken before we had to come back and raise the structure up another foot so the water will be just below the floor of the dock. When the pond is FULL it'll be about 7-8 foot deep at the dock. Sturcture for the 2-decks and the walkway post down to the dock. When pond is FULL the water will come up under this lower deck a little ways. This is picture is taken looking at the concrete entertaining area which will be covered w/ a fireplace, grill, a long table to sit at and a firepit on the left end of this picture. Walkway going down to the second deck. There is no steps on this whole thing so it'll be easy access for everyone (us especially when we get old) ! ha,ha Standing on the ramp looking at the deck

Boat Dock !! Can you tell we're ready to sit out
here and relax. We've sit out here the last two nights
listening to the sounds of nature and watching the
bats fly around (hopefully catching lots of mosquitos)
Standing on the boat dock looking back towards the
house.
Here's an empty chair for whoever wants to come
and visit for a period of time. My Aunt Ruth will
be so excited that she can come and walk out the
door of the house and down to the dock and her feet
will never touch the dirt or grass !!
Here's our Baby Cole enjoying the dock with us !!
