Skip's been here

Skip may have not-so-subtly reminded me that I've been remiss in my postings. So, in my effort at redemption, I'll start off with a post about what he's been up to this past week or so.

Think you know what he's working on?

Lovely, no?

This ought to be the give-away:

Ta-da!  A new portico!  I am quite fond of it.  He built just what we described.  He'll finish off the interior ceiling and the posts later this spring/summer (what, you don't like the treated lumber look?), but I think it looks pretty great already.

He's also been doing the far-less-glamorous but oh-so-important work of wiring around the windows for an alarm system.  Cause as you all know, I'm a bit of a wimp.

Thanks, Skip!  I'm serious:  With all the great stuff you've been doing around here for us, you could do quite nicely for yourself as the neighborhood handy man!
