Oooh, bugswife1, you have made some good, specific points.

I had visions of the material being saffron silk!!

bugswife1 -- good points made there, and certainly something to think about. I pictured the fabric being much more light and flowing. Heavy industrial orange squares don't sound all that appealing, and remind me of the vests city workers wear while filling potholes ;)

Just back for NYC. The Gates played a huge part of our trip if even only for the massive crowds.
(Thanks for your help with the trip Howard - wish we'd known u were there on Sunday morning too!)
Our thoughts?
Orange not Saffron
Aching back from lifting up daughter to touch them
Beautiful with late afternoon sun shining through them
Waved to Christo and Jeanne-Claude as they drove through the Park
Looks like a lot of construction work on our video
Looking forward to making our millions on Ebay with our three swatches of material ;)
