Derek's kind of "shop"

I have to give Derek credit. It's 12/23 and he doesn't have any last minute shopping to do. So he's enjoying a day off out in "the shop", a detached garage on our property far enough away that he can't hear the chaos caused by 9 children and 7 adults at our house for Christmas. At least it's his family and the Weavers know that this is classic Derek-- quietly slipping away to his own retreat when things start to get crazy.
He is finishing a ladder for Jane's indoor playhouse that he, my Dad, and his Dad have been building.
