I should have quite a few when I can get the time to work with them. I just got home this evening and arrived to find a plumbing emergency so I may not get to the photos until after we're back from Thanksgiving.

That was a long drive!

OK, I've got all of the photos edited (I think). I should be able to get them posted tomorrow night. Past my bedtime now!
