GGs and Roy--August as in worthy of respect because of age and dignity?
Lord love a duck and me without my hip waders on! It does get deep on the
Porch from time to time. I don't mind being included in the age category,
but I'll be damned if I'll stand still for being included in the dignified
category! I am a cantankerous old Son-uf-a .... with a scraggly long beard
who dislikes most children, more dogs, all cats and cheap foreign tools that
break in your hand. Dignified, hmpff!
On the other hand, I like the idea of trading tools for Olive Wood. I'm
just sorry I didn't think of it first! And you are right, we need to see the
carvings. Moshe is among friends here. Later, Paul in Normal
