    Heh! Indeed! Sadly, it doesn't look like Tim will be getting to the really really good stuff until next Tuesday. Virtually eternity!

    BTW, does anyone have bronze cleats or lifeline hardware they'd really like to get rid of?

    That new non skid isn't going to dry with all of us drooling on your new paint.

    Congrats she looks great
    Cheers,

    Lookin' fine! Allow me to pull a Captain Obvious for a second as I'm sure it was mentioned somewhere before, but what paint/color did Tim use? Spray? Roll-Tip? You are giving me something to shoot for with those gorgeous pictures. Between you and Bill A-24 is certainly envious of her New England sisters, but now she knows what she could look like someday.
