I was pleased to hear him say he never tired of it. I think we already knew that didn't we! <br /><br />I have a new puzzle coming up in a day or two. I am going to be looking for future puzzles when I 'm there next. I have had so much fun with it!Virginiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01152464973355194995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8865814823931525026.post-81718034891124965482009-07-03T21:03:51.705-05:002009-07-03T21:03:51.705-05:00No shame at all Peter.
