Hey Tony
After showing the Z's the pic's, They want to know were our rooms are located. Are the Z's rooms on the same side as the French doors. I hope not I would like to have a nice and Quite room. I really don't want to hear every one going in & out of the House. What about the garage were am I going to park my HHr, lets see some pic's

The LLB Family appreciates the ramp it makes it easy access to get in the house, Julie would like to know if you have an Ezee lift .

Rudy & Da Z's
