So Doug, if you are looking for any shots might look on my galley. And if you do not see them send me a line I might have it. I shot about 250 pix per gathering.

I was on google images and found this site which offers some good ideas for port hole look and glass insert.

look near the bottom of the page and you will find some interesting simple answers for windows.

That is outstanding!!!! Wow jut love it!!!
Someday, we will learn to take living in stride. Sometime, we will learn to pay less attention to the imagined and stop fussing about things we had nothing to do with in the past - and cannot change significantly in the future. Very soon, we will sit together in the sun a whole day and just be happy that we can sit together in the sun all day and just be happy.
