Rowbottom Check-in

I have almost completed this challenge and it has been put on the back burner lately. I haven't even opened the file in about a month. So, I figure it's time for a check in to remind myself what I have left to do and then make it a goal to have this finished no later then the 15th as I will be heading out of town around that time.
