Thanks all.

Micheal - Midwest to me is Iowa

Pineapple - Thanks for the positive encouragement.

Fugly - Grandfather Clown has been through lots with me, he is a tough cookie. If I could get a closeup shot you can see the wrinkles and lines on his face. Tough to do as he doesn't go far from his long tentacle.
