The fifth picture with the heat lamp in view makes it look pretty black.
I can't imagine what you're going through emotionally in wanting to get this finished. Every time I see updates for this thread I get excited. It's gotta be ten-fold for you.

I am, sort of. Grunt officer type and did my 5 year active duty tour post Vietnam. Was in the reserve for the Gulf and despite my best effort could not get activated. I did twenty total years (active and reserve) but for a variety of life-got-in-the-way reasons didn't get enough sat years to draw a pension. Never heard a shot fired in anger, which used to be a disappointment when I was younger. Now that I'm older an (a bit) wiser I am just as happy to have missed that.

The closest I came to getting killed while on active duty was on the grenade range when the Company Gunny, a Vietman vet who'd probably tossed hundreds in combat, fumbled a live one and dropped it right on top of the birm of our foxhole. As luck would have it, it rolled away from us and not back into our hole. Oooops. <KABLAM>
