This video show you how to fill a hole in the deck where a knot fell out. This one was immediately adjacent to the stairs leading to my hot tub, and it was large enough that if my toddler granddaughters happened to step on it, their toe or heel might go down into the hole and they'd get hurt.
I created a plug from a piece of the deck that was replaced. This means the plug will be the identical wood, and will be the same age. Although the fresh cut will initially be a different color, it will age within a few months and should match quite nicely.

![Petula Clark - The Wind of Change (partial)
This is a partial video clip showing Petula Clark singing Rod McKuens The Wind of Change. Im sorry, but I do not have the entire performance. However, enjoy her amazing interpretation of this great song.
Original Lyric (not quite the same as Clarks version)
The Wind of Change
music: Jaquine Rodrigo • words: Rod McKuen
[Based on a theme from The Concerto de Arenjuez]
Quietly... like the breeze that blows the olive tree
the wind of change has come down from the hills
to lead me home again through the last mile of sunshine.
As easily as the moon makes patterns on the lifeless lake
man grinds the flowers of the fields beneath his heels
and you wonder if he feels... love... or even boredom.
And my friend... the wind of change is asking questions.
Suddenly there are now so many giants everywhere
so many men who think even God looks small
when they are walking tall.
And the wind of change is smiling.
Could it be... that his smile is just another kind of frown
because he knows the world is finally falling down
and going back to dust
and if we trust those men who trample on the grass
emptiness is all that we can ever hope to ask for.
Listen and hear the sound of the dying grass bleed
its bleeding for man
and the fool he just wont understand.
Is it too late to change... the wind of change ? Petula Clark - The Wind of Change (partial)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/V7_L5EwAIOQ/mqdefault.jpg)
