Thank you, George.
I regret that they've moved back to their proper spots in the audio room.
I did as you suggested and took pictures first, though.

I don't know about others, but I seem to become quickly accustomed to seeing machines from the same angles all the time, and they lose their visual impact for me. But when i move things around, or - - even better - - bring something downstairs for a "visit" of a couple of days, it's like having a new machine all over again!
The photo of Fran's dining room table really didn't do it justice (flash photography is partially to blame). The various horns blossomed out like a flower arrangement, and the diffused light through the windows gave the brass and nickel a soft glow. Funny though - - I don't think Fran's wife saw it the same way!

No, she really didn't, but she's pretty good about these things.

Hmmm, in this case, that might be accurate!
Sharon told me she thought the term "gaggle" made sense though, because - like geese - they honk!

Fran, your picture makes me feel better about how crowded my table is.

Nice, Clay!
What better way for these under utilized horizontal storage devices to be employed?
