12/8/06 Let's Build an Addition

We woke to sunny skies and decided to start right in on the "building" of our screen room. Let me make a correction here, BOB started building the screen room. My role in this is "gopher". This is a role I'm quite comfortable with. The first thing I have to go get? Beer, of course!

Let the building begin....

The first screen wall goes up.....

This is going much faster than I thought!

....and he hasn't even cussed yet!

Houston, we've got a room!

Here's Bob taking a well-deserved break,

This screen room was made with a motor home in mind, not the shape of a 5th wheel trailer. Because of this there was an opening under the part that hangs over the back of the pickup truck. There's not much sense in having a screen room with such a big opening available to the no-see-ums and mosquitoes. Bob gave this some thought and off to Home Depot he went. Not only did his ingenuity take care of the opening problem it turned out to be functional too. Yes, that's a fan you see. Here in Florida we have days when it hits 80. Ahhhh, life is good!
