Here are some photos of what I was working on.
Not very good photos of a not too impressive project. But, nicer than what it was!
This too dark photo is of the pond filter fortification

These are of the bench. One of the statues and the waterfall/water box fortification and planter containing some small vines and a Purslane plant given to Kelly by @Pearly. This way, it will last a very long time.

good evenooning friends, that’s me now clued up on my full body workout, my wee arms will be weak tomorrow!
Good evening, John. :)
It's nice to be typing that again.
All sounds like agonising self-inflicted torture to me.
Still, they say it's good for you.
"They" are welcome to it.

I'm also re doing the front of the patio...The Barbecue area.
I've already made changes to the roof with the addition of 8 2"x6"x12' treated lumber planks with 5" deck screws anchoring down the steel roofing. It became very loose during hurricane Irma. I was out there in the storm...on a ladder..driving in nails and screws.
Now it's much stronger.
Not category 5 strong. Maybe not even cat 1 strong. But stronger.
Luckily there are no photos as I'm sure it's painfully boring. But it's the crap I've been working on.
The next few days I need to take one day and service Kellys car and swap out all four of the ABS sensors. They got rusty sitting in water left over from Irma and the anti skid/abs lights are on on the dashboard.

It's difficult, especially here in the Dark.
I think I can see a coffee cup and a pile of bricks. ;)
Seriously, it looks pretty impressive to me with my zero skill in such things.

Actually all quite interesting.
I like this sort of stuff.
You missed the excitement of my exterior wood staining and waterproofing the other day, that was a thrill a minute, I can tell you.
And I was attracted by the word 'barbecue'.

The bricks are the housing fortification and the coffee cup is likely the top of the filter.
