I don't know if I told you, but Ted and Del have those same photos. 
One of each of you, sent to each of you. <grin>

Strange, I thought that the Poppycock was a very common species. 
Why, just listen to people trying to sell pianos! They all seem 
to be made of Poppycock. I guess it's much rarer that close to Banff.

I look forward to seeing more of your drawings in the Journal.
