YES! <br /><br />What a grand idea! By the way, your purposefully "unimpressive" handwriting is still quite impressive. Makes me wonder just what your "chicken scratch" would look like. Actually, do you have that phrase in Australia? Needless to say, I can't wait to see what the elements and insects to do your buried treasure. Is it too early to check yet?
