Finished my San Filipe build after 9 months. I must say it was a great learning experience since I have never done something of this magnitude before. So, that being said, here are my finished build pictures.

Hi Billy, I do hope you sat back with your favourite drink in hand and just took in what you have achieved. For someone who hasn't taken on something of this magnitude before you have done a beautiful job.... Pleasure to see and very well done....Drool Drool

She is a beauty
Man he took his time in the sun
Had a dream to understand
A single grain of sand
He gave birth to poetry
But one day will cease to be
Greet the last light of the library...We were here!
