farmdoc's blog post number 636

This pic’s taken after work on Wednesday 13 January. The Blairs worked really hard that day. They removed the two old bearer logs (see yesterdays photo; apparently one of them was almost rotted through), then replaced them with the new logs, then put all the decking timber in place. They milled the decking themselves. They butted up the decking. It will shrink in due course, leaving gaps between the planks. We could’ve driven on the bridge on Wednesday night, but we didn’t. So far the job’s been quicker than expected, with no major setbacks. Whew!

P.S. No compendium today. It’ll resume next Saturday. For sure.

P.P.S. Finally, as usual, I wish you, dear Farmdoc’s Blog readers, a wonderful week.
