Welcome aboard Jim.... your neighbor from the great white north...actually I 'm new here myself.

[Vaughn McMillan]

Welcome to the Creek, Jim. As you've probably already noticed, we all have something to learn, yet we all have something to teach. Feel free to join in the fray. If you haven't already found them, there have been a number of nice Adirondack chair projects shown off and discussed here. Do a search on "adirondack" to see a bunch.

Again, welcome -

- Vaughn

[jim coughlin]

Thanks for the greetings I'll look forward to diggin in.

Tom, in Houston, also in the day shift.
