Thanks to all for the good advice.
I went to Lowe's this afternoon and bought some Tapcons. I wanted 3/16 x 3 1/4" but they didn't have that size so I went up to 1/4" plus the appropriate bit.
It's on the wall now and is very sturdy. Wy wife is delighted which I expect you can all appreciate is a good thing.

In case you want to see the artsy New Orleans-themed sign that our son made for her, I uploaded a pic to Google drive:

Can a file be attached to a post in this newsgroup?

It can be attached when posting, but it won't show up in the newsgroup.

Depends on the particular NSP. My NSP allows binary attachments in
non-binary groups, so I'd see it. You're using E-S and I'm guessing they
don't. Still, it's good etiquette to only post binaries to groups that are
chartered for them.

You did it right.
