Three months is a very long recovery from a surgery, and there must be great concern over her well-being. Interestingly, in the B&W pic with the missing finger, there seems to be no thumb, and 5 fingers, counting the missing one. That is strange, but suggests the 'missing' finger is just a gap between fingers, the ring and middle finger, while his thumb is concealed by the arm of the chair, to me.

Gen. BBQ would likely find California a welcoming home. Did you happen to notice BBQ's Mason pendant? I did.

Thanks!
