I had some special visitors today. DeWayne, Valerie, & Sam Connot stopped by. He replaced my stolen panel. I like this one even better! He put a little Igor on it. I always call Dewayne Igor because he does a great voice that way. I scanned the panel, not having a digital camera. Wanted to get the detail in. This panel is amazing. I hope I didn't save it too small! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU love Silly Jilly
