Pool Deck 360
We were able, this year, to finish the deck the rest of the way around the pool. It was a joint effort over Memorial Day Weekend...Eric helped, John (a friend) helped, Gramps helped and even I helped when everyone else had given up on Dennis! It was very hot and there were lots of dips in the pool in-between to cool off. Dennis is waiting for some cooler evenings to get the railings and benches done. Since this side of the deck is not as high as the other side, we're not worried about anyone falling off and hurting themselves in the meantime.
I also made relish from the radishes in the garden. Other than the fact that the fermenting radish and vinegar mixture stunk up the house, it turned out beautifully, and tastes delicious too! Basically, it was chopped radishes, red onion, celery, spices, sugar and vinegar. This fermented for several hours, then I boiled it, packed it in jars and hot water bathed it to seal the lids. We had it on hot dogs last weekend at a cookout and it was delicious! My mom served it with some fish and she said that was wonderful too!
