Thanks to everyone for all the nice compliments ...
Austin , I am looking forward to a bloom on that musella next year for sure ...
Bob , glad I could help

Bill , the temp in the basement is generally between 50 and 60F ...
Randy and Bill , the tiki bar is progressing but , I am going top hold off thatching until next spring . I figure no sense in exposing the thatch to winter weather before I get to enjoy it for the summer .
Here is a pic from a few weeks ago . The rafters and fascia boards are now all on and I am installing some lattice that the reed fencing I am using for thatch will lay on . There will be bamboo around the base of the bar and a pine bar top .
