Paul,
Great to meet with you today and immense thanks for the opportunity to quote such a great project .
I enjoyed the whole day — made it onto the last boat and home by 6.
Soldered some copper for Dan up island too.
Just to prove we both exist heres a couple shots from this morning !

Prescriptive codes don't address the connection at less common angles, so base the connection off more typical ones using bolts, structural screws, blocking, and steel tension ties.

Or fold the he** out of it <G>
Very sad for you , Duane and Dales family .
We'll get together one of these days -- I was only joking about digging out the photos .

It's the hat............copper p0rn
Paul,
Makes me look like 7 months along !
I think it was the way Dan held the camera or maybe it is the lens !
Dan is a great guy -- it's his house I stay in on Vinalhaven when I;m over there .
Walter
Must be the lens. I have one that distorts things at the very edge sometimes. Yours distorts them in the middle;)

Walter,
Looks kind of like the philosophers' coffee hour there!
No pink shirt I see, but at least a pink-ish hat.
Glad you lads had a nice time. Look forward to meeting both of you one of these days.
Best,
Steve
