Yes, Frank. I think it’s mostly self-imposed. The good news is: knowing that, we can shift it. Thanks for the comment.

Thanks, Elisa! I’m still tweaking the website. I think I’ve settled on something that is easy to read, but also features the photos better. Stay tuned. Any like finding a house in New Mexico?
