 Can you make the picture bigger?

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

That is the greenest rhyolite I have ever seen!  Great work on a really tough rock.  Bill

Yeah warhawk, I like the one in the middle best. :)
Glad to see you aren't wasting any time busting into it.
It was good to meet you and your wife Friday. I really enjoyed talking with you
and we'll have to do it again sometime. You'll have to get up here and sit around and
bust some rock with me.

Great combo and teamwork, warhawk. I really like the way that came out.
I'm sure the client will be happy.
