I left my love a letter in the hollar of a tree.
I told her she would find me in the U.S. Cavalry.

We'll ride clean down to hell and back for Ulysses Simpson Grant.

sorry...
I've been building klickies belonging to the different groups (but I havent made the french/british/americans yet and might not) for the Peking confrontation in 1900....i will put them all in the same shelf finally, if possible, but i wont build dioramas with chinese buildings etc (I've seen fantastic chinese buildings in another Forum I think)
