It looks just like Unkle Phil's, they must be related. <BR/><BR/>BTW, you're welcome to add lights to our front porch any time. They'll have to be battery operated -- the power outlet is inaccessible (unless you bring a forklift) thanks to a certain someone's plant-collecting penchant. ;P (We will not be responsible or held liable for anyone tripping and breaking something while trying to string lights on our potted plants.
