Cincymat, you are truly one lucky guy. I'm the other one.
This is my 1st post here but I saw your thread and couldn't resist jumping in. I have the forerunners to your "Plum Crazy" L Scalas. My wife, our dogs (the "girls") and I made our road trip from OK to meet Matthews and pick up the "Black Bettys." If yours are anything like mine you will truly be pleased and amazed!
Hard to believe 3 guys, one from OK,one from MO and one from OH have this in common - we have Matthews to thank for this!
Here are my "Bettys."
