Time to Add a Wooden Deck to My House

I don't know if many of you know this but I do own several homes around the world and I happen to own one in Atlanta as I have a lot of family in that area of the world.

Being the kind soul that I am, I often rent out my house to my relatives at a very low price because I get to keep my house and I know that I have someone trustworthy to take care of it while I am out traveling the world.

I recently came back to my home which is located in the Virginia Highlands neighborhood which is probably my favorite neighborhood in Atlanta as it is right in the middle of some pretty fun places according to most Atlanta Guide.  And after doing some talking with my nephew Craig, who is currently renting my house, we deciced to add a deck to the home whioch would be located in the backyard.

Oddly enough, having owned several proporties around the world, I have never had to have a deck built so I was a bit at a loss.  That is when my nephew recommended this company  called Dixon Group Services which has a good reputation in Atlanta for providing quality work at a fair price.

Of course, I wasn't gonna just take his words for it and did my own research on Atlanta deck contractors and after meeting with several of them and getting many quotes ranging from ridiculously low to ridiculously high prices, I realized that Dixon was the right choice.

I was quote a price tag of $30,000 for the deck and it would take them just a week to build.  I was a bit surprised that they would be able to make it so fast but they assured me that it would be done on time and that I would not get charged for the rest of the deck until I was satisfied with the work.

Surprisingly enough, the deck was built within a week and I am very happy with it.  Dixon's work was obviously very professional and the service very good.  So if anyone in the metro Atlanta is interest in getting a deck built, I strongly recommend them

  6. Trekking in Nepal…Family Adventure style
    The towering Himalayas are, to many travellers’ minds, the chief reason for visiting Nepal. The country tumbles steeply down from the 800km stretch of the Himalayan battlements that forms its northern border, and can claim no fewer than eight of the world’s ten highest peaks – including, of course, Everest, the highest of them all. The mountains are more than just physically astonishing, however. The cultures of highland-dwelling Nepalese peoples are rich and fascinating, and the relaxed, companionable spirit of trekking life is an attraction in itself. The Himalayas have long exerted a powerful spiritual pull, too. In Hindu mythology, the mountains are where gods go to contemplate, while the Sherpas and other mountain peoples hold certain peaks to be the very embodiment of deities.
    Most visitors to mountain areas stick to a few well-established trekking routes. They have good reasons for doing so: the classic trails of the Everest region with its famous trails like Everest Base camp trek and the 3 high passes are both mind blowing ventures and highly popular in the world. And Annapurna regions are so popular because they offer close-up views of the very highest peaks; this includes Annapurna 1 & 2, fishtail peak and Ganesh Himal trek. Famous treks like the Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek, Annapurna Base camp trek & the Annapurna Circuit trek are some of the most famous on earth. Dramatic scenery and fascinating local cultures are most known in this area. Lodges on the main trails – some as sophisticated as ski chalets, these days – make it possible to go without carrying a lot of gear or learning Nepali, and without spending too much money, either. While trekking, you’ll likely eat and sleep for $20–30 a day. For those who put a high priority on getting away from it all, there are plenty of less-developed routes, of course, and simply going out of season or taking a side-route off the main trail makes a huge difference.
    The Helambu and Langtang regions are less striking but conveniently close to Kathmandu, attracting a little fewer than ten percent of trekkers. The Langtang valley trek & the Ganja-La pass are known trails in this area. This leaves vast areas of eastern and far western Nepal relatively untrodden by visitors. To hike in these areas you’ll need either to get set for camping and carry your own supplies, and live like a local, or pay to join an organized trek with tents and accept the compromises that go along with that.
    With a good operator, you can anywhere in the wild. A Great Himalayan Trail now runs the length of highland Nepal – though it will be for some time, if ever, before such a route will be serviced by lodges.
    Treks in remote far eastern and far western Nepal are mostly restricted to two kinds of globe trotters, both adventurous in their own way. The majority come on organized camping treks with agencies – in fact, this is obligatory for those areas that require a permit. The minority are independent trekkers prepared either to carry tents and food or negotiate with porters, or to seek food and lodging in local homes and basic lodges. Some great camping outdoors include the Manaslu circuit Trek, Upper Mustang trek the Dhaulagiri circuit, Rara lake trek and the great Kangchenjunga trek, both north and south.
