  Thanks, everyone. I had to double-back on the highway, after I zipped by it the first time. Glad I did.

  Thanks, Linda and Gail. And Gail, you got me going on buZZ. Thanks again.
Linda, I'll send you the non buZZed shot, but not til tomorrow as it's getting late. I'm sure I'll be seeing N GA shots soon. Plus I think you should submit your farm picture.
