Welcome back- only so much time in the day, sounds like you were busy. The last stand of winter - we had some wild weather last week too - snow, hail, rain, wind storm, a lot of on-grid people lost power. This week is looking warmer though. As far as lumber goes, I still remember my confusion and disapointment the first time I measured a store bought 2x4. Inches? :) Looks like you have some solid lumber for your projects.

Thanks bud. Yep, the crazy weather here continues. We have a few days a week over 60 and at least one day a week of snow for the last 3 weeks. Same thing this week. I'm trying to settle into a reasonable groove here on Steemit.
