The Handyman Strikes Again

We went to visit a member the other day and saw the steps into her house and couldn't believe how scary they looked.
They were just stacked cinder blocks that were very unstable
The step from the house to the first block was really long. The top of the blue board is at floor level
All of the cinder blocks were removed and then treated posts were set into the ground. With the help of two of our missionaries we built the top landing. 
Next we added the side rails for the stairs.
The finished steps. They are not up to the standards I would like. We didn't have a level and we ran out of the new boards we had purchased, but it is still a dramatic improvement.
Finally, Paula and her friend tried the new steps into her house. She said "I love them".
