    Very nice improvement !  Is that a storage locker for your goodies to the right ?

    Nice improvement. 

    If you haven't already discovered it, the top half of the Smokeware cap can be stripped the off the top of the egg in New York minute when removing the BGE cover.  Here are a couple of ideas to keep it in place when the cover is removed.  Obviously the seal has to be in place holding the bottom half securely to the egg.

    The storage locker is a water proof truck box flipped on its side for all the eggcessories.

    I like 'em both! :) And I like the idea of the rainfly overhead. Where did you get it?

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    Looks like one of the Sunbrella Sun Shade Sail things.....  I've been coveting those for a while...

    Love the idea of the truck box.....  That will be going onto my back deck shortly; gotta troll Craigslist......

    Nice setup.  Share some deets on the work.  Looks like a lot of excavating and stone work.  Both the ground and the walls.  Great area.
