Thank you, Carolyn, Jeff and Charlene!

Carolyn, I certainly felt like I ATE THE WHOLE THING! I had a corny dog, "Tornado Taters" and a candy apple. I felt sick later that night and the whole next day! (My stomach felt like the waves I put into this!) But it was worth it. LOL!

Here's the original pre-wave version. #229034

When you commented on my Photo it caused me to check your Gallery. COLOR what beautiful color you produce! A great Gallery! Great Subjects!

Wonderful bright primary colors and effects, Patricia, looks like this was taken reflected in one of those crazy house mirrors that they have at fairs! Terrific job! #229305

Murry Grigsby October 12, 2003

Nice bright festive image, Patricia! Great colors and graphics. Think I'll go get a pizza now :0) #229684

Hi, Roseann, Doug, Ellen, Bill, Colette, Darren, Carol and Murry, thank you all very much!

Doug, thank you so much for your kind comments on my gallery. I do love color! Color makes me happy! :-)

Bill, thanks for the "excellent eye" comment, but I'm afraid my digestive tract isn't anywhere near the same condition. LOL!

Ellen, I'm so glad I've inspired you to go to the fair! You're the second person I've inspired -- hooray! Have fun and I'm looking forward to seeing your always-creative images.

Murry, it's funny. Last night we actually got a pizza for dinner. Hadn't had pizza in a while so it satisfied a craving I had for it. :-) #229732

Patricia Marroquin November 18, 2003

Hi everyone, thank you very much! It was such a nice surprise to see this, considering that I didn't post very many photos in October (and none so far in November!).

I'm still in Texas. The packers arrived today and we'll be on the road to California on Friday. They're disconnecting the computer tomorrow (They took mercy on me and am letting me keep the PC going one more day!)

Speaking of computers, 2 viruses hit our PC while I was trying to upgrade my Norton Anti-Virus. Long story short, we lost all data on it -- documents, photos, e-mail addresses, etc.! We ended up buying a new computer, but there's no way to restore everything we lost. Thank goodness I had backed up many original photos on CDs, but all the ones posted to BP in their final state are gone.

Hope to be back with you soon! :-) #272697

Colette M. Metcalf November 18, 2003

Congrats to you!!! #272846

Suzie Strasburg November 18, 2003

Colette and Suzie, a belated thank you for your congrats. I was without the Internet for a while during our move to California. So glad to be back online and back at BP. I appreciate your comments! :-) #284398
