    Well, you asked for it, didn't you? If you had doubts, you now have your answer!

    You will do just fine, one day at a time.

    Maybe so, but I bet The Priest will still be easier next time.

    Congrats, Mambo.

    Well I'm gonna have a fun hike. My editor wants me to do galleys for three books and two novellas en route. Sure! I only hope I can get it to work out so I do them when I have a lull - like when I'm home for four days in May and for a few days at my in-laws up in NY. Or I'll be doing them in a shelter long hand.

    I finally got my 3 entries on Trail Journals up. Wow. I have been planning this for over a year. I guess I am just lazy like that.

    Remember to put a note on your refrigerator so you won't forget and nibble those shaded toes.

    Default Dino, you need counseling!

    Nibble on my toes? I'll wear heavy socks and hike for about a week without changing them! That will cure you.

    Think about it, Dino! You don't want any parts of that. Need I point out, my feet sweat a lot?

    THANKS! Wish I had seen this earlier!

    Boy I just love your avatar, FD. Isn't that from a kid's dino show long ago? Lost World or something?

    I'm not sure where the avatar originated. I got it from an on-line elementary school module on dinosaurs

    My son has an iguana and she looks up at us like this all the time. Her name is Alfred (he thought she was a he, but now she is quite chubby due to being full of eggs so....)

    Same name... although my posts aren't that great. I wrote them late at night when I was not exactly with it.
