Nailed the Pizza...Time for Shoutouts

A few Sunday Shoutouts. Finally nailed the pizza. It has been an ongoing project. I have used a combo method that Bob S, Fidel (the Eggmaster in my humble opinion), and Midnight Smoker all helped me with. Here's how it went down:
Created pizza on parchment paper:
Preheated egg to 500*. Setup was platesetter with feet down, 3 female copper couplings to create space, and pizza stone on top--let stabilize for 20 minutes before placing pie with parchment paper on stone:
A few Royal Oak Friends hanging out during the cook:
Cheese for the kids:
Pepperoni, green peppers, and onions for Dad and Mom:
I removed the paper about half way through for no reason other than to make a connection between dough and stone. After first pie, I wiped the stone with damp towel to decrease temp a little because I have had burned crust issues in the past (prior to this method.) Crust was perfect on both with NO BURN.
Thanks to all for the help, and especially thanks to my man DC HOG for turning me on to the egg 2 years ago. He is a great American.

Those look great. Makes me feel a little disappointed that my own pizza plans for this weekend fell through.
I have a similar rock collection on my table. -

I said to my wife, 'Where do you want to go for our anniversary?' She said, 'I want to go somewhere I've never been before.' I said, 'Try the kitchen.'
