Looks nice - suggestion for weeding is to use a flame-thrower weeder. With all the rock, no fire worries and no bending over. I use one in my garden and after hitting it once or twice, most weeds are, um, toast.

Thanks guys. It was a difficult build for me, standing 26ft up on a plank, a SHAKY plank, holding the wieght of the ridge pole then each rafter, while my brother climbed around me ( on a 10" plank scaffolding) and nailed everything in place. Got-er-done. 
Dave, bring your wife over next visit. Let her see first-hand
