Dick,

Beautiful job. I know your son is very pleased with the results. Thanks for the post, and congratulations on learning Sketchup.

-- Bill - If I knew GRANDKIDS were so much fun I would have had them first.

Holy cow! It does look just like the SketchUp plan.

It looks great.

Love the family teamwork. That is living!

Good work! Sketchup makes visualization of a project much easier.

-- You're a unique and special person, just like everyone else.

Great job Dick on learning Sketchup and the project itself, it looks really nice. I wish I could get my son involved like that in woodworking. It is so cool to make that project in sketchup look just like what you made or visa versa. Anyway you are living proof you can teach an elder dog new tricks. So to speak of course. I think I better shut up before this turns into an insult. Your friend.

Nice work Dick! I’m glad things dried out enough for you to finish it and enjoy it the rest of the summer with your son and his family. It turned out wonderful!

Thank you Lee!

I have to apologize for the slide show, because it wasn’t working properly

I just edited it, so it should be working good now.

Agreat addition to the house Dick. You can be very proud of that job.

Super nice job Dick. To me it is one of the great joys in life to watch the world go by while sitting on a porch or deck, sipping some ice tea, and visiting with family or friends or both! It will be enjoyed for years to come.

Amazing Dick, I can’t believe how the sketch up and the real thing are alike.
Beautiful pics too.

I found out why all of my images weren’t displaying on the slide show,

because I’m only allowed 30 images on one slideshow, so it kicked some of them off.

Nice job Dick,

It’s very kind of you to document your steps for others to follow.
Anyone who hasn’t done this can appreciate how much time and effort is expended in getting the data arranged for viewing.

Thanks Bob#2!

Hey Debbie Thanks,

Barb caught me loafing, but I was really taking in a little nourishment.<;O)

Now we can head up to the cabin, after we take care of some things around the house.

loafing.. nourishment… yes, I can see that it was clearly a required task!
