Icon18 A Coke and a Smile for Christmas!
It has taken me a couple of days but I wanted to post pics of what my wonderful wife bought me for Christmas. This was a complete surprise! It is an excellent addition to my collection.

Thanks Karis!!! I didn't know if anyone would notice that I was gone for a while. I really appreciate the kind words.

Work has been really crazy the last several months and I have not had much time on the computer for fun. But, I hope to be on the forum more here now that things have settled down a bit. I have missed all of you!!!
