Even with a straight line .. My hand wouldn't be steady enough for detail like that!!

Great news about your brother, Western!

And very nice work too!

Add me to the list that can't even draw a stick figure! No artistic talent, at all here!

Okay ... country boy hates city ... about 10 days ago my iPhone gave me a problem .. couldn't hear the caller ... tech support decided it was a phone issue not software and an appointment was made at the Frisco Tx store (closest to me) for repairs ... sunday 12:20 ... so we load up and head south ... I put on my best western shirt, best bib overalls and best cap ... all is well until we hit hwy 121 ... at 55mph folks are passing me left right left right ... a horn honk here and there and I wave ... Cher says the speed limit is 75 I explain "relax Im not going to get a speeding ticket" she rolls her eyes!!

I pull into Stonebridge looking for a big ole apple sign ... NOT ... I call them and explain I'm lost in your parking lot ... BTW the automated phone service took awhile to get ahold of a real person !!! I finally get it ... ITS A STORE INSIDE THE MALL !!!! Cheryl has to stay in the truck with the Cocker Spaniel pup ... I head in OMG people everywhere !! Santa Clause is taking pictures with the younins ... folks lined up to eat .. it doesn't take long to ask the first in store person "WHERE IS THE APPLE STORE?" Left about 12 stores down ... I find it !!!! 100 some folks in the store ... I'm like WTH don't anyone stay home ... I grab an associate give my name and he says oh your appointment has been cancelled afterall your 30 something minutes late!!! I explain all I can hoping for mercy .... It must have worked ... I was out in 20 minutes new phone in hand!!! I told Cheryl it had to be the western shirt and bid overalls !!! Other folks looked at me like "How He do that" ... BTW the bib overalls was new, first time they been worn and I had my USCG retired hat on ... I'm thinking they thought poor old retired county boy went and bought new overalls to come to the City!!!
