I might add with aid of Rusty and the big time help of Andy.

First pic is me putting the very last piece of the puzzle.

Then two pics with my helper Trouper.
Awesome job Jimbo, it looks beautiful!!! Trouper is adorable.

[QUOTE=Twinspin60;632146]Beautiful!! I think I'll just come and live on your lanai when we fianlly move all our stuff down here!! It's been a few weeks since I've been on this thread and boy have things moved along! Everyone's houses are so stunning--can't wait to see them all when we're back down with the moving truck at the end of March. We've been up to our neck in boxes and clutter-finishing taxes and posting for jobs like crazy--might have a good lead as had a very lenghtly interview on Friday--everyone keep their fingers and toes crossed for me as I'm really getting tired of these cold and white North winters. [/


We wish you all the best on your interview. Exciting that you are moving down in March. We are envious. We will be down end of April but only for a visit. Keep us updated. Take care.

Count us in for all the great parties and sports (altho I shattered my wrist last year trying to learn tennis!)... See you all soon can hardly wait. One question - what is the difference in 'snowflakes' and 'snowbirds'? If we plan on being there for 4 - 5 months, what are we??

Hi:

We close on the 5th and are just 4 doors down from you on Euclid. At 4-5 months you are definately snowbirds where we can only be flakes.
