    Granny_59 ... You deserve every bit of the praise and credit for such a wonderful job done.
    Even after all this time, I'm still in shock that you parted with it and sent it off to me!
    Your DJ is already amazing, and will be breathtaking once finished!
    Signed, your rotten, lousy, sneaky ... and humbled friend!

    The Congrats go to Granny_59!!!
    While she wasn't able to be part of it IRL, I'm hoping that each of these threads about her accomplishments help fill in the void!

    Granny's Shri Lanka stories are amazing too. I just finished reading about her 2012 trip. She is an amazing woman! And I can't wait to read more of her generosityand experiences with the people she has met.

    Congratulations on another well earned win!

    SheriR ... if you start from the beginning, you'll have a very good read! They read like a story, and some of the questions you have in the later chapters (visits) are there in the earlier reports. Granny_59 and MrGranny have done so much for the Sri Lankan people and made $$$s go so much further by doing it without NGO involvement!! They truly are amazing!
