The head is gray, hands don't work , back is weak, legs give out, eyes are gone, money go's and my wife still love's Me.
Byron,
Yes those are mini's. Our German Shepard of almost 14 years left us on new years eve. He and the red mini, Kasey (6 yrs), were best of friends and she was devastated as were we. That's the only down side to having dogs. Anyway we got the new puppy shortly afterwards. Wolfie was only 5 lbs in January @ 8 weeks but is now 11 lbs and is longer than Kasey. We walk the desert trails in the morning after the wife goes off to work. It's really beautiful this time of year.

Tom,
Yes I make my own shingles. The hobby shop (The Doll House) wants $35 a bag for them. I just cross cut a cedar fence picket and split them off with a box knife and hammer. I think I posted some pictures of the process earlier....
" approximately how much time do you put into one building?"
I spend about 3-5 days on a building. It could go faster but I don't want to burn out. I have a lot of buildings to go.
Really nice construction there Rex. By the way, are those two mini "DOC's" there.... In your last shot? I too, have a mini "RED" named Pepper, about 14 yrs old now, I'll post a shot of her, a bit later....

Rex:
Very nice! Are those shingles of your own making or are they store bought. If you made them, may I ask how?

I've been building while the weather is still bad up in Pinetop. Here are a couple pictures of my recent completions:
This is what Pinetop looked like last week:
And this is what Gold Canyon is like today:
