    Ken,

    looks good near as I an tell from the picture. Might it be a little on the heavy side?

    Some close-ups would be nice. Hope your wife gets better.

    Ditto on the rain down here in SE Idaho. But it's supposed to break next week.

    Will see if I can get better pics if the sun ever comes out. It is a bit heavy. Will shoot it tomorrow. Wife is better. Slight heart attack. Thanks for asking.
