Good for you Heather. and welcome to ride camp from a relative newcomer.
There's just one thing I would like to know...how in the world can you keep
up with two other lists? It's all I can do to get through the posts from
this one. Sometimes the information gleaned is invaluable and most of the
time, the contributors are of supreme good nature. I guess we all have a bad
hair day sometime.
Happy holidays and wind at your back.
Pat Super
