    Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass....

    It's about learning

    to dance in the rain.

    Did you decide on a color scheme yet? Looks like many of the Pipers in my budget might end up in the same stage at one point, even with a fresh annual.

    So far this is the leading favorite, not sure on the colors.......
    probably keep the base white with the stripe to match interior.
    Paint is last on the list.......I kinda like the "junkyard dog" look............
