Dear John,

Well, well...I have to say that I didn't know about these dimensions or I
wouldn't have opened my trap...except maybe to say that that's a tall
fence...and
long too, considering the offer...but a six foot boy with three foot arms
could just about do it without a ladder...if he used a long-handled
brush...how tall were they?

With warm regards,
Ralph Gainey
