Lucise --- I like all your picks! your Carol is exactly who I would expect.
             I like Wes and Edna who look like a caring and fun couple.
             I particularly like Joe Tooey and your pick for Bill is just Ellery's type.

Great minds think alike, eh Scudder?   
It is a madhouse here, but we are rapidly building our gallery ...
Now, when I read about a character, I know exactly what they look like ...

Last night, as I was reading about Ennis getting all riled up and throwing orders at the Chief Deputy Darlin like that..the images in my head were just NUTS!

The prop mistress again. I need to point out that that robe is 37" long and there are 75" of Ellery, so it will probably be a little higher on the thigh than in the guy in the picture. Just wanted to clarify that.

LOL!  That's our Leslie - making sure we've got our details straight!

Here here - Me too likes all the wonderful piccies that has been put forth for casting these characters!  What a great way to take a break this drab and dull afternoon.

David:

That's agreat picture of Officer Reynold's patrol car.
Your picture of Wes fits Louise's description as does the picture of Carol who is a blond.

Lucise:

Your later picture of Edna fits what we have heard and seen of her...warm, generous, caring and loving.

Ellery cooking breakfast for Mr.Coyote!

It's nice to see Ellery relaxing in a domestic mode. I miss Jack but Ellery sure does take some of the sting away.

Hey guys -- The horses haven't been described in a whole lot of detail in the stories, but Nellie and Socks are pretty clear in my mind:  What do you think?


Nellie


Socks 
(woops -- we might want to edit out that hint of a package that this here gelding has...)


But Pal.. now that name evokes all kinds of possiblities.  Any of these match?

I say the one with the saddle on for Pal.  I always saw Pal as a light brown... what the heck IS that color?

The color above is a buckskin -- a yellowish brown.  I can search for a dun or a light bay...
