[Rhodes22-list] Another reply to Sheldon about Biminis

[Tootle]

Sheldon,

As I recall you are a rookie on this forum.  Are you aware that Commodore

Send a box of organic chocolates to Rose for best deal.  For that gratuity
Stan will throw in mounting hardware, that is surface hardware and not the
fancy recessed pop ups.
