Wow...very nice pic Gary!!! Hope you all have a great gathering with new and old friends!!! Safe boating and nice waters!!!! John, Amy and Ms. Teddi (turning 13 years old in July and doing good for a grandma doggie).

Miss Teddi (will be 13 in July), Amy and I had the honor/pleasure of meeting Angel and you both at the 2012 Friday Harbor gathering. We wish you our sincerest condolences!
