13. Rd1 Nd7

He said right about now that it was over...so he might as well swing for the fences
16. Bxd7+ Kf7
17. Qd4 Qxd4
18. cxd4 Rd8
19. Bg4 Rf4?
20. Bf3 g5

23. e6 Rf4
24. Ne7 Rxf3
25. Nxd8---and thats essential it...from there i chased him for 13 moves around the board...checkmating the king on f4.
Opinions...where he could have done better earlier on...where I could have done better?
To make it easy for people to look at your game try using pgn format. Tags are [Tagname "tagcontent"] and {comments go in curly brackets}
The moves 23. e6 and 24 Ne7 are illegal, I assume you meant 23. e5 and 24. Ne6.
It looks like you played it more or less the right way.
