I'm dedicating this image to my dear brother-in-law, John!! :o) He is back in hospital after further issues with his heart, and when Phil and I visited him today he asked me to let the BP folks know that he won't be around here again for maybe another week or so!! :o( Thank you all for thinking of him and his wife Margaret at this time!! :o) #1379731
