(Just copy the line and then paste it in your browser's Address window to go to the pages, or just click on the line!) I hope you enjoy reading and viewing about the conversion. Please get back to me with your comments and suggestions, and if you have any specific shots you'd like to see, I would be happy to include a few more pix.
