Hi, Bruce. Thanks. It's always good to hear from you after putting up some
new stories. @8^) I appreciated your detailed comments on the last set and
felt kinda bad for never replying to say so. Maybe I will yet!

I was proud of my new cows that are all built "upside-down". This allowed
the fat cows to have what looks like eyes and a mouth line, and let the
skinny cows have teeth. @8^)

I realized on the day I was finishing that story that the new mummy minifig
would have been perfect for the part, but I couldn't get my hands on one. I
went to several area stores just to find it, but no luck. It seems they
only have the new Studio sets on LEGO.com so far. And I was in a hurry
since I desperately wanted to finish the new stories and get them online
before heading off on vacation for 2 weeks. I even posted to my .loc group
asking if anyone had a mummy fig I could borrow for a couple of photos and
then return, but alas I had to think of another way to make my embalmed
figures. I thought they came out looking pretty good. Perhaps when I do
get my hands on the mummy I'll reshoot the scenes. We'll see.

Um... I don't readily recall. Sorry. @8^/

Thanks. I think I borrowed this idea from somebody else, but can't remember
who offhand...
Thanks for your continued attention to detail! @8^)
