Thai,

Right now we have still a ton of work to do. I am hoping the stand and everything is complete tonight, but we still have to do some paint work etc for the first peace we are putting in. I am thinking I was a little ambitious when I thought tonight.

Tomorrow is the auction. I have to be at the auction by 9am and if it goes like last time I am home around 8:30pm. If its going to be tomorrow night it has to be after the auction and I dont really want everyone here tomorrow night tired off their butts when installing the tank and everything else. I am thinking Sunday is going to be the "big" day. If everything goes well the tank will look complete and tested. After that Thai I am prolly going to call on you to set the time for when we go to College Station and take delivery. Then home and drop fish off !!!! Its going to be rocking and fun :)

Keep smiling :)

PS as of 2:50pm the top piece (what is going to be above the tank) has been built. Roomate is right now sanding the shelves which is going be above the tank getting it ready for paint. I hope the first paint will go on the stand sometime this afternoon. Once the first coat is on.. then we start working on the bottom piece.. the piece that has to hold a tank above it. :) :) :) Then second coat on the top piece and clear coat. Then after all that is done. Install the top piece.. then install the bottom piece, and we are ready to install. Then sometime after everything is up and running, install trim so it all looks good.. I want to verify that the tank is NOT leaking before working the trim.

Glen.. I will let you know.. Lots of work to complete before we get there. You are always welcome to stop by if you want, any help is always appreciated.

Keep smiling :)

PS Right now it does look like we are going back to Lowes soon again and I need you to bring your truck. It looks like we are going to end up being at least 1 8x4 sheet of plywood short.

Damn Thai.. you could be a little less political about this whole thing.

3:55pm -- okie sanding done. Kids are home now we start the first paint job I believe.

lol, I'm just messing with Glen. I like to give him a hard time cause I'm jealous of his RRs.
