Thanks for the ideas and the funny images, MM. Strange to see Picacho, AZ and
Reid Park in your collection, since we moved up here from Tucson a year ago.
Equally strange to see local places like Gray's Harbor also, since we are now so
close to them. I'll wave the next time we pass on the road.

Hello Marcy
Your pictures are great and I would like to try making some

Costco sells Altoids by the case. I served them at home and brought them to

How do you form a pinhole out of an altoid container? Seems a little tight to
