Home Renovation Project: Back Patio Deck: Footings Poured
The footings for the patio deck support columns and fireplace were poured today. We expanded the footprint of the foundation somewhat to simplify the patio/grass border. This will make it easier to keep it watered and trimmed... plus we get another 2 feet of patio space.

The concrete should be cured sufficiently by tomorrow to start building the structure. The beam that will support the structure is pictured above (resting on the sawhorses).
