    Looks really good Bob. Your right about the big snow here , lots of buildings go down every day. I have been lucky so far. My shop and onion shed keeps shedding but my house and the mobile have to be shoveled. DSCN1414.JPG

  28. Thanks Lloyd; So sorry to hear that migrate like all us snow birds. Heard anything from Old Fart?
     
  29. I'd sure like to. I hear from him rarely. He's the same if not more so ( you know what I mean ). Looked at the picks again and I'm liking it more and more. You could not have done better IMO.
