[Leica] Paw week 4 Lady Lois

[roland_cpa at yahoo.com (Roland Smith)]

Grant,
I recall that were also, concurrently, find out if we can delay the painting 
for 
one year without losing our deposit or incurring extra cost.? I seem to 
recall 
that Judy was to inquire about this.

Notice the two black objects sticking up on the end of the barge opposite 
the 
stern-wheeler. These are steel beams that are lowered to the river bottom. 
They 
prevent the barge from tipping. The two on the end with the stern-wheeler 
have
been removed for this job.
