Hey RR,

(Very) pretty wife, cute son and you're fairly well immersed in primitive skills. What more could you ask for?

You know, of course, if there's anything I can help you with, just ask.

BTW, I bought Steve's book on Spring Shoots..............

Doc

Riley, I thought it looked familiar from your pictures. I had to get something in B'kln near CI this morning so I figured what the heck, take a hike in at the Bay! Next time give me a shout and I'll drive a bit further!
