Oh I forgot to mention, today was my anniversary. Been married two years. By sheer happenstance, its also of the 4yr anniversary of the day I proposed. We actually got married two years to the day from getting engaged.

For Claude-

Couple shots of the new man cave. Gonna be pine sided, building my own sliding doors and windows. Couldn't get an end shot in the sun. The large half is only 16x16, with an 8ft door. It'll get a 6ft extension off the back to set the storage rack in so I can lock up the tools. The room off the side is 12Wx 10L and will be a littl break room/bar/bar-b-que/patio area. The end will have large windows with my creek in view across the drive.
