Boy, I didn't know everyone would get so excited over the Niagara Falls sport :lol: I didn't post a photo because it really isn't anything to get excited about (yet). For now it is light green with a dark green center. If the edge lightens at all it will be worth doing something with... otherwise it will just be my odd Niagara Falls ;)

But thanks for taking a look and for the feedback. I'm still torn on what to do about the white edged Praying Hands sport. Some people just say "Eh, its just Praying Hands", but when grown side by side with the real thing everyone wants my sport and not the real Praying Hands...

I am still waiting for Kent to tell me his brutally honest opinions to help bring me back to reality on these :lol:
