    Thanks Toni! Now the only thing to do is guard it so that a gnome doesn't take a shine to it and try to swipe it from me. :eek:

    Toni, were you specifically looking for it, or did it just call your name? Did you find it a Vista Ridge? It is so cute and very appropriate. ;)


    Frank, you'll have to get someone to take your picture wearing it and post it!! ;)
