That's my girl, Colleen, get the pictures first. I can't think of any BPers who wouldn't have done it in the same order, if we knew that "Larry Lizard" was going to be OK, eh… What a great photo, well presented, and the story was also terrific. Well done, my very dear friend - Allan #502550Donna W. Neal April 26, 2004
