Gordon, remember that "mutual defense league" for fathers of daughters we joked about ? You know the one where when the boys start comming around you pick up the red phone and a group "enforcer" fathers turns up as back up? When can I sign you up? Congrats!

Congrats!!

I had two of these myself, although I went with the two-hander versions... both weighed 10 lbs. Eek!

Oh, and that little blanket she's wrapped up in, that's exactly what I use to wipe down my swords. From one precious to another I guess Laughing Out Loud

Seriously, all the best and good health to you all.
