Congratulations on your beautiful finalist Rona. Good to see the restoration work. You don't appreciate what you have until you've lost, as we certainly know, after losing many many heritage buildings in our recent earthquakes.

=( Sorry, Rona. After commenting and clicking the Submit button, I got an error message. Said to hit "back", so I did~as you can see I had to do it many times before it went thru, but I didn't know it would repeat my messages like that. I've cluttered your thread page. =(
