You hit that nail squarely on the head Leigh!

Being new at this and having two of them, I would love a picture book with
blow by blow description.  Lack of a book is why I picked up the second one.
I am using the second one as a running example I can refer too while doing my
frame off of the first one.  Then, I'll switch out and do the second!
