Wow, nice to see the results of your hard work, nice job.
I'd say that cookie jar is quite full, you should be able to get plenty of fishing time in now

Looks great, you got about 1 month to be totally finished.

Then "you know what".....


My wife is making sounds about doing over a couple of rooms, I said "Too late now" you had all winter.

Talk again after fall run !!!!!!!!!!!
