Mark, I owe you an apology. I've been so focused on my Saga, that I neglected to read yours. You're at 92 pages so you're not sitting still. I pledge to be more supportive of my #1 reader. Also, I had missed your note about you dad having to go to the hospital. How did that resolve itself. Also, thank you immensely for all the nice things you've said about me and my wife.

My parents are long gone, Dad in 1995 at 85 and mom in 1999 at 89. But I have a sister, a sister in law and two brothers in law who are in their 80s. Modern medicine is keeping them all alive and reasonably functional. In fact, it's keeping almost every body I know alive. In my parents generation by the time my parents were in their mid-70s, most of the husbands were gone… almost all due to heart attacks. Now, you have an attack, you get a stent or bypass and you're good to good for another 10 to 15 years.

BTW: the building is look'n great. You can also use Plastruct I-Beam or H-Beam structural members instead of brass to straighten the warped walls. Depends on what you have hanging around the shop. What kind of adhesive was that you used to glue metal to the wall?
