Vagel, you are making great progress! Looks like you are finally rounding the home stretch and it's all coming together. Looking good too!

Just my luck - I have to come up to the Burgh this weekend, not next, so I won't make it to the open house. Timing is everything.

Deane, as "luck" would have it, I have to drive to Rockhill for an FEBT Bored meeting on Saturday (yes, my spellcheck works).[:-grumpy]

But if you're around on Sunday, I can give you the Cook's Tour between 11 and 1; then I need to dash off to Don's for the monthly model railroad quilting bee.

Vagel: Thanks for the invite, but I have to hit the road bright and early Sunday. We have work that needs done at home in anticipation of getting a new roof on the house in a couple of weeks. Maybe next month.

Thanks, folks. Know what? My first reaction after looking at all that blank backdrop echoes Custer's last words: "Holy s---, look at all those (thwack) ..."

Wow! This looks good, Vagel, but something's missing. Shouldn't it have some trees on the backdrop or in the background or something?? [:-eyebrows] [:-eyebrows]

I'm envious!
