Hey Fred. Glad to hear you are back in the game. You have to much talent not to be involved in painting in one form or another. If you can pass along only a part of your abilities to another, they would be lucky to have you as their teacher. As for the items that you mentioned, I was looking to get my daughter a tscope for her birthday in July. Honestly only had about $400 to go with but maybe I can figure out something to get a bit more and hook up with you. I will stay in touch and if someone else ponies up the dough, take it.
Nice to have you back.
