The computer got back up and running but then a dog hair on the scanner lid caused some of the images to be squeezed into a smaller portion of their rightful area. Even after rescanning for some reason I can’t get the corrected images to post. So #s 5, 7, 10 and 11 are a little smaller in scale than the others. It’s always something. Well, it must be mid-day somewhere.
