Bottled a couple gallons of Hop Hammer tonight.  It tasted much better than when I moved it to secondary before dry hopping.  There was almost an inch and a half of hop matter in the bottom of the fermenter when I racked it into the bottling bucket.  Unfortunately I forgot to take a picture of it.  I also had a final gravity reading of 1.014 which is nine points higher than the previous reading I took.  I am not sure what happened last time, but I trust this reading a little more because it is close to what I expected.
Bottling is getting easier and easier the more I do it.  I put a towel down to work over this time and that made clean up a breeze.  I also worked to make sure the priming sugar was thoroughly mixed throughout the beer.  The vanilla stout had some carbonating inconsistencies.
