Absolutely. Kudos to Mart!! She was one of the few to reach out, and we've never even met. She's a jewel!

Thanks Ghopper but I don`t think a face to face is a requirement for friendship !!

Of course I meant that some friends of long standing didn't even bother to check.

You did, so kudos!

GHopper,
I sent you a PM through this site (when we were wondering how you were doing) - did you ever receive it?

KC:  I did get one from you that mentioned the crazy weather up north. I had just sent Mart a long note describing what was going on, and asked her to forward that same note to you. I take it she did?

Couldn`t figure out how to forward the  entire message so just sent KC a PM telling her all was OK with you and Mrs Ghopper !!
Told her you could fill her in when you got home !!

Yep yep and yep.  Ghopper1924 Just didn't know if you received it because this site has hiccups at times! 

Praying for the safety of all of you!

Today is sunny and a bit toasty after all the rain!  Water came up to our back door but not in with the deluge that came down all at once!  Tornadoes hit several places all around us!  Crazy weather in Texas!  We are safe and blessed!

Wow, glad you are OK! Beautiful figurine! Love the feet especially! Can you see the double criss-cross grain in the ivory?

Thanks Tales.  Indeed, you can see the double criss-cross lines. I assume you mean the Schrager lines?

I never heard them called that, but yes. The double grain of the tooth. Learn something new every day!  :-D
