    Really nice

    Looks nice Frank, what was the final cost for one that size counting the slab also, I've been kickin around the idea of building me one and putting a small living area in it also for those long working weekends. It will be built on some land I own about 40 miles from my home.

    Too bad that the people that were building it took today off..........or it would have been plumbed and the A/C would have been hooked up by now. Oh.....sorry.....that was Tyson chicken wasn't it? JK

    That is one nice building. Now I'm jealous. (y)
