Morning all,

Sunny and headed to 88 degrees later.  Hopefully showers tonight.

Still working on the backdrop.  it took a lot of time, effort and swearing to get five feet accomplished yesterday.  About 7 feet left.  Then a massive cleanup.  I suspect this will take a few days. 

This is one of the layouts which convinced me I needed more than just a painted blue sky backdrop.

Good luck finishing the backdrops.  Once the full sky is up, you'll be able to step back and see a BIG difference.  

Sunny here, going to mid 80s.  Today I start the eyedrop regimen for Eye #2, cataract surgery is Tuesday.  Eye #1 continues with fewer eyedrops.  Right now, though, even though I hate doing the eyedrops, the pollen count is up so they actually feel OK.

Morning all,

The Empire will look great with the new backdrops, Jeff.

Getting ready for our big trip. We leave Sunday afternoon and will be gone for the better part of two weeks. I'm not looking forward to the long flights but, once we get there it'll be great.

Finished one micro project yesterday and need to find another to work on.

Have a great one!
