So as some of you know, my mother-in-law fell off of her steps about 6 weeks ago and broke 6 ribs. Her house is just a little brick ranch built in 1977 so everything is poorly made at best. As my wife works cleaning out the inside to remove 40 years of accumulated junk, I work on the outside getting the place a little safer.
First order of business was making her car port steps better. They were very narrow brick steps so I over laid them with double 2x8s
couldn't stop here, had to get the railing right.
