I went back to Castle to fix the wall with foundation blocks like this


That's not mine, got it from here http://www.gamesradar.com/best-fallout-4-settlements/ There are some more fun ideas in there.
I managed to fix the corner a bit better, planted a big garden in the middle and set up bunks and a mess hall inside. Then I ran out of steel again.

I made the mistake of letting McReady carry my stack of grenades etc. The idiot keeps throwing them at my feet when I'm fighting in cllose quarters. First I didn't realize it was him, yet dogs do not carry grenades... For a character so concerned about money he sure likes to waste expensive grenades. He gave me a mission to kill 2 people at a high overpass intersection. I didn't spot the elevator, so went the long way around with some platform jumping which meant McReady got stuck. I had to guide him down the overpass again afterwards.

And I finally went to Diamond city. Nice place with a lot of people to talk to. I screwed up the jail escape though and ended up having to kill all the guards to get back out :/ I better lay low for a while. Lots of new quests to do. I found the lamps catalog btw, from one of the quests in Diamond city. And Piper, yet I had to flee the city before I got around to visiting her office.

This game is huge, according to my save file I'm already 4 days and 20 hours in. 152 game days, just shy of 4000 objects build, lvl 46, main quests finished: 1 lol.

I fixed one wall with concrete blocks but left the big hole for ease of entry/exit.  I built a bridge over it with missle launchers, though, so I'm comfortable with security on that side.

Grabbed Mirelurk Construction and Spectacle Island for settlements.  Both had Mirelurk Queens.  I learned that Gauss Rifles with 285 damage are superior to Mirelurk Queens (from a distance).  Gave me the "Harder They Fall" achievement for killing 5 giant creatures, yay.  3 Queens and 2 Behemoths.

Added the lighthouse after slaughtering the Children of Atom.  Can't be many left.

Construction has begun on Keizoku City (named after one of my favorite series, Keizoku 2: SPEC) on Spec Island.

Other than the foundation, only the housing area for the peons is near finished.  Finally, I can build a proper pier.  Of course, the supports don't reach the bottom but out of sight, out of mind.
