While we are talking about the amazing Mr Riedel,...did I mention he also did a portrait of me from a photo taken at Danville Il!!!,...it was a pleasant surprise to say the least but I kept wondering why he put a bright fire red background on it till the last three weeks or so,then it dawned on me,..with my white beard the portrait looks kinda like Santa Claus heheheheh the laugh is on me Bill,I got an early Christmas card....thanks a million,..as I always and will continue to say Mr Riedel is nothing less than a gentleman and a scholar,...
when I finish moving I will post a pic of it when my scanner is unpacked.
