Yes .. thank you, Stefan, for providing the "canvas" upon which this excellent dressing has been rendered.

WILLIAM...outstanding fly, and HOOK. Hey, guess what, I have a few of those hooks. So you didn't hurt me too badly...lol. I forgot about it, until I thought...why the 17 in front of the 206, then it dawned on me....I thanks to Daringduffer, have found the source for those little gems...
Now to find the time to TYE SOME MORE STUFF...that is the main problem. Too busy trying to get stuff done before the heat wave dang near kills me around here.
