John,

thanks for the nice words...

sadly... my web site is up to date

change in jobs and other committments have just about taken all my truck and web time. Nearly lost my job a couple of months ago and luckily my boss retired... which left me with two jobs, his AND mine and of course for the same slave wages I made previously. My less than adequate spare time is spent helping my wife with her business... I scratch out an hour or two a week to play but get very little progress made lately.. Hopefully during the winter months things will slow some in her business and I can get some truck time in...

If you have some specific questions I'll try to help, but I'm like you ...a first time builder and I'm searching for the answers also

main thing is we both shouldn't get discouraged and stay focused on the goal.. my goal today is to get thru it !!!

later

john

BTW... checked your site a while ago and you're doing a great job... love the top chop, I wasn't brave enough to attempt it. Our paths are similar... I just keep tripping and falling down, then spend time crying, then I go back and kick the root I tripped over, then I go back home and get an axe and cut it out of the path, then I forgot where I was and start over... I might make a lot of mistakes, but at least I'm slow !!!
