Great photos!

Dustin, it is true that Buck's photo is pure beauty and yours truly ugly, but remember the theme was Halloween!

Darryl,

When is the runoff voting? Or did I not understand what happens next. May I ask for 3 days, since if it happens over a weekend, I may not see it in time to vote. Thanks!
