Bagel Jacking

Avery, Nina, Mindy and I went for a cycle this morning. The ride was looking a little iffy due to thunderstorms but we lucked out and only caught a couple of sprinkles. Afterwards we had breakfast at our favorite bagel place.
Mindy and I did some work in the garden and I got the beam in place on the patio and started jacking it up. The previous owner who built this patio (out of very expensive redwood and teak) missed some engineering basics around how to orient posts and lintels. I’m trying to save it but I had to take a couple of breaks today and breathe out the overwhelm after seeing new aspects of the structure. The rehab process is going to be more difficult than I had hoped.
