Deck Is Now Complete!

 
Our deck is finally finished!
 
Due to the added weight that the composite decking added to the 12+ year old joists, we were forced to add (3) additional 6 x 6 posts and support bean under the center of the deck.  Of course we didn't want to do this, as we've lost our only open space near the pool that provided shade and we've also lost our cloths line, alas.
 
However, it was needed and there was no way around it, so I'm glad it's been taken care of finally and before the snow flies, which is sure to add additional weight but no worries any longer.
 
We can now host that long over due party without worry and fear of the deck collapsing with too many people milling about.
