I did have some help here and there, eg: setting the 2 commercial grade fixed glass units above the door walls, those are 6'w x 14'h at the tall point and weigh roughly 500lbs each. Had to set up scaffolding to set all of the upper glass.
Only thing I regret NOT doing is a metal roof vs. shingles and is something I would recommend, the 12/12 pitch definitely saves wear and tear on the shingles but the metal roof is 'forever' and roofing a 12/12 (= 45* angle) is a b!tch !!

A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.
