Hi mrs. g.....great links. Thank you. Had hoped to be able to visit your area. However, Mr. NWV is really not up to longer rides and is still recovering from a previous illness. Maybe by Spring time???? Take care and thank you again for your many posts here.  |

Yer velcome, dear!
I pray Mr. Voyager is better soon and able to go on some more voyages, soon! I know that what's most important is that you have each other right now. Give each other a hug for me, k? And hopefully, we'll be able to hug in real life in the spring! If it works out, maybe I can bring MrG with me!  |

Calling all Missourians....need some events here....you know, something besides 'Jack Frost has visited most of the state and left his calling card. Father Time also was a visitor and changed places with the New Year '2009'. My usual source was/is unavailable. Maybe we should just take the month off and let things happen in their own way???? What say you, Mrs. G????? |
