16:56 - Hammer drills both kick, and suck, ass

(top) |
My arm, leg, and abdomen muscles all agree this is so.
But all the holes are now drilled in the concrete-brick wall along the back of the property, and the pressure-treated 4x4s are all mounted with 10" carriage bolts, and the cement piers and posts are all painted a deep terra-cotta reddish-brown. That's so the crosspieces can be attached between them, and then the piers can be covered with vertical trellis pieces, which then will stretch across the top. The brown will show through the trellises on the way up, but the rest of the white wall will be covered with redwood planks.
The backyard's still a mess, but it's starting to take shape. Slowly. Surely.
Photos. I need photos.
