Thanks for the positive comments on our project. I also agree that the family part is the best part. Here is a picture of the whole clan still at home (the oldest daughter, son-in-law, and 4 grandkids aren�t shown).

ewest - You�re right, swimming might call for future projects. We�ll see.....
jeffhasapond - Thanks for your kind offer. I�ll talk it over with my older children and see if they are up to helping
reform raise another sibling. After reading several of your posts over the last few months I find it a little unsettling to discover I have a background in common with you - in years past I was a CPA and my wife was an RN.
Brettski - Your story and posts have been the most enjoyable and helpful for me. Honored to get your approval.
You're right - my wife is the heart of our family and a blessing to all of us. She is a wonderful helpmeet that I can always count on, and I�m so thankful for her. Much like your own Donna�ski.
Theo - I�m also looking forward to that future picture. I�ll try to post an updated photo this summer.
