When we discovered that our water pipe running from the cottage to the lake had frozen this past winter, we decided to dig it up, replace portions and reroute the rest so that it would be buried deeper and under snow cover for future winters. Â This project turned out to be an ongoing adventure, snowballing into rebuilding the patio and deck, which then lead to considering replacing doors and windows, which will have to wait.
This first picture shows the soil that was displaced attempting to move the water pipe…
digging up the old pipe
 Next up was digging up the existing patio and expanding the width. length and depth so it is more comfortable…
 Then came removing the old deck…
footings
deck boards
railings
and discovering the damage caused by carpenter ants…
 then replacing the old, chewed boards, footings, and joists with new ones…
adding a waterproofing system to keep the patio dry…
adding the floorboards…
then the posts and railings…
 All under the watchful eye of several supervisors…

 final results: an upper deck for viewing and sunbathing…
 ….and a lower, covered patio, perfect for storm watching, reading or working in the shade…

 Unfortunately, our cottage project has been put on the back burner because of a family issue.  My father-in-law fell and broke his hip in June this past summer and the ensuing drama has had us very busy.  The side railings of the deck still have to be installed, including the following hummingbird fence insert for a privacy screen:                             Stay tuned for a spring update on our cottage project…
The cottage project that grew and grew… When we discovered that our water pipe running from the cottage to the lake had frozen…
Last year of Father’s Day our sons brought a truck load of cedars up to the cottage for us to plant along the edges of our property for a privacy screen. The project was a great success, a wonderful way to spend Father’s Day.
Everyone who owns a cottage knows there is always something to be done there. We are currently in the middle of renovating a patio and deck, a job we decided to prioritize when our pipes froze and required digging up.  This year for Father’s Day our sons spent the day helping their dad work on this project…
Their hard work was topped off with a jump in the lake to cool and clean off, then a BBQ dinner, before they headed back to the city for a soccer game…

Even the weather co-operated; the forecasted rain and thunderstorms held off until our ride home later that evening. The flowers have nothing to do with the project, just thought I would add them in as they were blooming beautifully this past weekend.
Hopefully this gift of time for Father’s Day becomes a tradition; I know it is much appreciated!
