*grin*, Don...my consignments to WalMart have been less successful than I'd hoped...(not thick enough plastic coatings on the burl, I suspect...).

I have LOTS of close up pictures, but most are just records of past glory...you want those, or just what is current? I could easily post some in the Photoloft site.

I do need to finally get a web page going, but your idea has a certain merit as an extra Mudcat fundraiser, too. I have had a couple little things in the auction, as have several others...what would we do differently?
