Re: Pictures: this moment

It's kinda hard fixing things up just so they can move on to be enjoyed by someone else... :(( I'm feeling for you... Good luck with downsizing your collection... :dizzy: - I know what it's like when real estate agents say "you need to reduce the clutter before we can talk about listing your pr...
