Yes, edit away.

My college colors are red and black, and I'm planning to get a college tartan designed and woven. "Planning ahead", I call it.

Oh, well done! Would your alma mater be NC State by chance? I used to run workouts there on the track and surrounding area, whilst living in NC.

Lord, no. I'm from Lenoir-Rhyne College (now University) in Hickory.

Did you build the house, too?

No, my brother did, but I did lay the curved rock wall that retains my greens patch.

Looking quite spiffy there, David and feline.

Everything looks awesome. New buckle is fantastic! The shirt, though, is what impresses the heck out of me! Very nice work! And that goes for everyone.

That sounds nice, Piperdbh, I like rock walls.

It's a 12 1/2' radius quarter circle, Ted, that is two 8" concrete blocks high, then veneered with field stone. It's just high enough to sit on after long afternoon gardening or to set flower pots on.
