    Found it at a church rummage sale in Charlotte, NC. Lady said it was a mascot for some club. I added the sign.

    Mike, that gap to the right of the egg is larger that it appears in the picture, makes it pretty easy to reach all the way to the back of the corner, which is about 3 feet in depth; the gap itself is about the size of a 10lb bag of lump, which is probably what I will keep tucked back in that section, & in the closer area I will probably put the often used tools & gloves... check out the picture for contrast purposes. The storage area to the left of the egg will be where I put all hot stuff, the grids, plate setter, chimney, & so forth... I may put a shelf in there too, it's giant:

    bravo!

    i have a pile of brick that was left over from the patio getting put in, um, five years ago?
    have had a design in my head for a while, but pulling the trigger is just not happening.

    the cobbler's children have no shoes. takes forever to build what i design.

    looks great.

    funny thing about laying brick, just like most things in life, looks real easy when you are sittin in a chair drink'n a beer & watching a master do it, but try & lay a course yourself & you quickly realize just how inept you are... I had a general idea too for a long time, thought it would be on a grander scale incorporating a much larger patio area & even a fireplace, but certain things didn't break my way, namely, a septic system that was supposed to change over to public in 2009 but was scrapped, left me with a smaller area to work with, but in the end, still extremely happy with the situation

    That's fantastic. My eyes were drawn to the first picture and I was almost about to compliment you on the cart and your window repair, until I started to scroll through the rest, and my jaw hit the mouse pad on my laptop..... :)
