Day 31 - Garden Arbor

I have a wonderful neighbor who is retired and loves to tinker around.  He's got a shop filled with more saws than anybody would ever need.  As part of my front yard makeover, I tore down some dilapidated lattice but I wasn't sure I wanted to dig up the treated posts as they were still in decent shape.  I had an idea of what I wanted, sketched it out and he came up with the brilliant idea of surrounding the posts and building up.  I wanted square lattice, not diagonal and when I couldn't find it, he made it by sawing boards into individual slats and then nailing them together!

My job this weekend - to get at least one coat of stain on it before the fall rains settle in for good.
