    She is a miracle baby! The 1st 8 weeks of her life were in the NICU (born 10 weeks premature). She doesn't let a little thing like Cerebral Palsy keep her down!

    We will be in TX another 2-4 years. Still have the big house in St George, UT that we will be going back too.

    Cool! Well, Lubbock has a coin show (150 or so tables) next weekend (March 14 - 16) at the Civic Center. If you get a chance to attend let me know, it would be great to meet you there.

    For those that think I'm a light weight with 3" of snow. Here's a picture of my house when I was a young 25 year old SBSG (that's "Sun Bronzed Ski God")

    Forgot to post a coin! Here is a recent 7070 purchase. It's more overcast than white.

    You had to be 20 feet in the air to take that picture.

    You got a crane or just friends enough with your neighbor to get on their roof?

    Don't tell me you put the camera on a pole and somehow snapped the shutter.
    "Lenin is certainly right. There is no subtler or more severe means of overturning the existing basis of society(destroy capitalism) than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and it does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose."

    I'd say he was on snow shoes and just even with the eave of the roof. Some places like that stipulate you must have an egress at the upper most floor of the house.

    Took it from the second story of the neighbors house.

    There's a bunch of old schoolhouses across the country that would make dandy conversions to single family residences or small apartment buildings - lots of land too!

    Most communities, however, seem to be reserving these properties for municipal use (community centers, arts programs, senior day care, etc.).
