My heart goes out to you. There is nothing more nerve wrecking than
getting one of those phone calls which we all fear.  Glad she is going to
be OK. We will see you both at Steamboat next year, Right?

I had an acquaintance many years ago who thought yellow meant "Go like hell
and hope you make it." At least that is what he told the judge. Don't know
what happened to him; but, I suspect he got what he deserved.  I just hope
he didn't do it to someone else.

Thanks Dave, not the way I wanted to get them. Though I do appreciate and
need those guys. I'm good for two sets... how many do you have? OK, I'll
take
three :-)  Now If I can Just talk Ben H. into parting with some of his
goodies..........

Best to you and a speedy recovery to you're wife.
