    Thank you @joecoulson for the 2x recommendation. Went with 2x6 for the top rail and think it looks great. Finished the stair rail, added extra support below and she’s done!

    The garden's looking end-of-the-season tired... but it's productive. :)

    The excess 'maters (plus fresh-harvested onions, garlic, and herbs) get turned into roasted 'mater sauce -- about a half-gallon (final volume) at a time. mmmmmm...

    knock-on benefit -- it makes the house smell wonderful.

    trust me ;)

    Best part is -- it's really easy to make.
    Less work, and time, than "real" tomato sauce. It is a chunky, carmelized "sauce" but an immersion blender can be used, if desired, to puree it to one's preferred level of... umm... pureeage. ;)

    We freeze it in quart containers -- for the long, cold, dark New England winter.

    Still going...
    Picking up the edging tomorrow. Then cut all of the cap to finish. Already started another retaining wall on the opposite corner. No rest...

    So, we went through another design change and have now decided to extend the flower bed up the side of the house.

    What that means...more work...
