Happy Birthday Dawn!

Here's your gift.  My diet seems to be working, and I've lost five pounds!  (Hope you didn't expect anything better than that....) ;D
The frame was snapped, the #3 rod was dangling from a hole in the cases, and what was left had been consumed by fire.  I said, "Hey, we've got all night!"

So what did Paul get you for your B-Day?  Hopefully, it was at least as nice as the Suomy Helmet you gave him for no particular reason on any old day....
(Oh God!  I'm so evil....)

He got me a really nice card and a small inexpensive gift.  If I ever whine about a bigger present, he just reminds me of the motor home sitting in the driveway.
