Thanks to all for your kind words.

Boomer - I understand what you are saying. However, some folks view this site with tablets or cell phones both have relatively small screens. As they scroll down the page they can read the description and then continue scrolling to the photograph. It's not typical, but for those folks they would have to scroll down to the description and then scroll back up to the photo. I don't organize text like this when I am writing a report because typically I present reports on paper or in PDF format.

No problemo---I can live with anyway you do this great job!!!!
