I have to agree: red maples are nice and square junipers are not. :P
As to that basement rec room... How long do you think it will take before 'the bulk of' your son's toys start squeezing out 'your' space? :whistling:
But I love the notion of your deck being just outside the dining area. You can eat outdoors for several months a year, eh? Does it have bench railing, so you don't have to drag chairs around when you want to just wander out for a quiet beer on the deck?
My son can put his toys where ever he wants to, as long as it's down here in the basement. There's a decent sized closet in the corner that we are going to use to chuck his toys into when visitors come over. He's usually pretty good about putting things away after he's playing with them anyways. Besides, he's way more interested in the computer I set up for him down here. I put it on a small coffee table and found a small kid-sized chair for him. He thinks it's great.
The deck doesn't have a bench, but it's one of the things I was thinking about changing. It should be a pretty easy and cheap thing to install.
