Upstate Update - Behold the Back Deck

I received these photos from Jeff last evening.  Looks good to me.  I would have preferred a more natural wood look, but he assured me that the stuff he coated the cedar with will increase the life of this deck dramatically.  Also, it will obviously weather naturally as well.  I am going to trust him on this.  Still, it looks like orange juice concentrate - NOT GOOD FOR RESALE, JEFF!!! 
Stairs are yet to come.
