    Sure looks good. Maybe all that snow wasn't all that bad.

    Good looking food. The view out your "cook shack" is awsome. Don't get snow but about once every ten years and that will shut us down for a day or two. People will run to the store and hord food like its the end of the world.

    Ventilation is no problem..have plenty of open screened space..the only thing I am considering is adding a vent hood just to keep from discoloring the ceiling above which is at about 9ft, but over time I think will be a problem...

    My neighbor's are mainly old & cheap but not that smart. With your address they will spend $200 in gas for a $10 meal. They have tasted the egg food (think I can claim them on my taxes) and will line up at your door if I show them your Pic's. I'll hold off for now but if it get's too bad I'll send a few your way. :laugh: :laugh:

    Wow! Everything looks delicious! I'll be taking vacation with the kids this week, so there'll be plenty of time to experiment with the eggs this week.

    Holy cow, you've been a busy boy. Do you have enough warm bodies around that place to eat all that up? Excellent pics, B TW.
