The Honey Do List
a.k.a. Why Doug isn't golfing much these days J

 
 
 
 
 
 

This page isn't a definitive list, nor have I formatted and made this thing very pretty. However, the idea is just to list out some things that we want to do. The list will grow, I'm sure. I've included our initial SWAG*** at target start times and costs. If there are any contractors, architects, or other professionals reading this page, feel free to tell us your thoughts and give us a price estimate. :-)

*** As they say on TV:  "Milage estimates are based on EPA Standard estimating techniques.  Actual milage will vary.  Your milage will probably be a lot worse!"
