chicken coop is in my thoughts, deb -- i've been cleaning the
  old one up bit by bit, seeing what needs to be bought - it's
  been too darned long. and John - lol - actually, I've gotten
  pretty good with power tools! Once, I was afraid of a circular
  saw. Yup -- pictured my fingers flying off. now, it's simple.
  Just prepare the work properly, and it goes smoothly. "
