Quotas might help me.  I am in a building mood again.

Well, thanks for the kind and humbling words.  I am just a hack builder and performer having a purty good time of it. 

Excellent on your canjos and having the Rev for a friend and mentor.

Ha, Wes.  Is that another fell off the wagon joke?  I sure did.   I have a 3 string about half done.  Worked on it a bit today.  Nearly perfect fall day here.

Thanks Jerry.  Fancy is good, but not my thing.   Thanks, Jim.
