Deck Railing all but complete

Down to the lake late with the kids and the amazingly lifelike zombie imitation of Debbie.  Only sleeping a few hours after her all night shift and going to a morning meeting to Missouri Girl State, she was running on empty.

We got the railing up for the last portion of the deck and some ballusters.  We needed more than I had calculated.

Washed down the decks and straightened up.  Mike killed a huge blue racer snake.

Here is a revision of the Dock Span Spacing and Displacement Calculation Graph.   I had used the wrong axis for height, not realiing that when laying on it's side, the height is not the 30 inches as when the barrel is erect but the 20 in diameter instead.

Works perfectly now and the displacemnt penalties are significantly less.
