Gary, a few glitches have popped up since you were here last? Here’s the trick with photos? Even with Comments, type your comment, then click HTML editor before you click Add Comment & it won’t end up blank?

When you get close to a date to come, call me so that I can check to see if I can spend the day with you. Dr, Dentist and other things, keep us busy.
Hi Gary....Call me at the phone number on my card and I will give you my address. My bowls don't have any paws but they do have a rubber ring. I have not built any of my own boxes yet, but I have a ton of thin sound board for when I start building. I have about 20 CBG/Us around, so I won't be building until I can clean house.
