Well done. What do you have planned for the far side of the porch without the decking?

The end is for parking 4 wheeler, gold cart ect.

Got it decked today. Need to pick up 2 more 2x10s to cap the front and build the stairs. Also have to finish the trim and battens on the front wall now.

Looks good! I did two porches at our ranch cabin myself. Glad I'm done but we use them more than the inside most trips! I always suggest screwing the deck boards down. Otherwise they will eventually start moving. And let those treated boards dry before staining. Glad I had some helpers...

Looks great so far.

Thanks.
That looks good as well
I screwed them down and butted them up tight. They’ll shrink a lot too

Porch is done, front wall is trimmed. Can lights installed & wires pulled. Unloaded ceiling tongue and groove. Will jump on that tomorrow.
Going to cap the fronts of the stair stringers as well and add some flag stone so the front step isn’t as high.
