So you built it upside down then flipped it over.....GENIUS! Guess you felt this one coming huh? LOL! Looks great you know you only build once,and they are never big enough when finished. Look forward to your progess. Did you move or just move down the hill side,with a second structure.

Hey Travis did you follow up on DB's suggestion and get the brows put over the neon? Wouldn't want to see the same thing to happen after you mount the sign on the garage.

Hi guys. Lloyd we actually moved last summer as we found us a few more acres , it was a pain moving all my stuff , wife a kids are happier with a new home also . Fred you are right , I am protecting the neon this time .I started on making the a eyebrow before and it will be on there this round , like you said that was a good DB idea that will be put to use. .....He sure had a lot of great ideas didn't he .
