I want to thank you all.  My son Ken and I worked all week on the
plates.  He has taught me a lot.  I'm having more fun than I've had for
years.  I just want people to look at the pictures, don't worry about
the prices.  You don't have to buy anything, I'm just proud of the
pictures.  I know other people have been doing this for a long time, and
it is enjoyable.  This is just practice for an upcoming book maybe?
It's hard to realize what can be done with simple equipment.  Just wait
until I can get some great equipment.  The Marginellas can hardly wait.
Writing to CD rom is next. Thanks again for saying something.  I
wouldn't answer such a person.  I just consider the source.  I've gotten
more singed roasting a marshmallow.

Bob and Ken
