EXCELLENT WORK!!

I'm kind of jealous of the gold pin!   I've learned from Tina how important it 
is to accessorize.   Now I'll be out-handled AND out-dressed by our talented 
youth.  I can't win!   ;)  

In all seriousness though, this is such a great effort towards proclaiming 
support!   To all involved:  BRAVO!!
