Paul,
Those are some very nice pieces.One of these days I'll have to let you show me how you do those.
Have you been to any meetings lately?We've been on the road and I haven't been able to be there.Things are starting to slow down a little I think.Maybe I'll see you at the next meeting.I'm going to try to come up to Tamarack and chat awhile on the weekend that you are there.We have concerts that weekend ,but they are within an hour of Beckley.
See you later,
Lance Brooks

They're beautiful Paul. I also agree, the mounting really sets them off.
