    Hi Folks:

    Do you ever get in that loco mood and as Lance Peters and Lee Iacocca say, "Think outside the box".

    Well when I saw the Acorn capture I made under a canopy of branches and leaves using fill flash I started
    thinking outside the boxcar as I liked the Woodie, but hated the feeder, and as pickin's were slim I put Rube
    into high gear, and came up with the "Loco Book Ends."

    CC's always appreciated and welcome.

    Hi Harold:

    Only 10 seconds ago I noticed it and removed it. I was thinking of you when I saw it. If you noticed, it was not in the watercolor.

    Thanks for not disappointing me. :D

    Uncle Gus :D:D
