Amen!  Just amazing to see Mike's photos after all the hard work those involved with #9 put in.  My Christmas gift came early for me this year.

We want...A SHRUBBERY!  One that looks nice, and not too expensive.

She certainly is a beauty! You folks really know your stuff! I can't wait to see her in person, with or without whitewalls!
I need nothing else for Christmas.
