Pergola - Day 1



Work proceeded slowly last night. Most of the time was spent creating templates that I will use to ensure I drill holes in the correct place or ensure that I mount boards in the same place. My goal was to get one square of the pergola up, but that did not happen. I discovered I had purchased the wrong size bolts and will need to run back to Lowe's today for some 8" bolts. I did take a quick picture last night when I stopped and you might be able to get an idea of what one section will look like when I can actually bolt it together. I did a quick and dirty job of fading the background to make it a bit more visible.

On a positive note, I noticed a bud on a Lotus plant last night. That little bud is about the size of a nickel now, but it will be a flower about 6-8 inches across when it blooms.
