Mike,

We chose the pose and Jerry altered the form to accommodate. The Lion will be on our second floor in our open floor plan great room/ kitchen/dinning area. As you walk up the stairs from the first floor you have to make a blind left to enter the great room at the top of the stairs. The lion will be staring into your eyes as you turn the corner. Pretty much how he looked after breaking cover behind us on the hunt.

Cheers
Jim

I assume the floor there is tile? Or at least brown carpet?

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."
