Nice pic Lacy33. I'm glad you got it sourted out in time :smile:

Ha-ha.! "sourted" out, so I have a LITTLE temper. It's not like it's a secret. But I can't play with anything harder than a cotton ball.
I still figure out how to get sour grapes into them.
This was a fun learning experience and I didn't realize until I happen to be at another computer today that the photos can be seen on the threads. Will wait and ask "computer genius son" how to enable this computer to show that.
