That went well; I wasn't smart enough to realize that the pics had to horizontally oriented.

Oh, well, on to the next subject. The next picture is a mock up for the diorama. The cottage will sit on a grassy hill, surrounded by various sized cedar trees (as used in the earlier diorama). It will face the water with a rock retainer wall. In front of the wall will be the pier with motor boat tied to the pier with mooring lines. A path will lead from the cottage to the retainer wall, where a set of wooden steps will lead down to the pier. The plastic water surface will support the hull of the boat. The protective case will have clear plastic sides that will allow the viewer to view all the way to the bottom of the body of "water" (thus the sandpaper bottom). This will put the under water parts of the pier and boat on display. Two of the "windows" below the water line will have a transparent film scene of fancy friendly fish. The third widow will have a film of a shark with his mouth open and facing the viewer. The message here is that even if things appear safe and sane, be aware of things around you, because "thar be sharks in them waters". Ok, your turn; you get to tell me what you don't like. Oh, one more piece of intel: the car in the picture is the car her father got her name from. ( No, her name in NOT GT .
