A-ha. And, I'd better learn how to spell FReeper FRiend :) We drove through Little Rock a couple of years ago and went to see the Hot Springs NP up there. But, it was kind of crowded so we left. Is the conference any fun? Our building is being worked on, so I was able to work at home today and maybe tomorrow.

"Is the conference any fun?"

I don't know how it will be. It's a conference on helping teenagers with independent living skills. A lot of kids that are in foster care as teens never return home, and even if the plan is for them to return home, there has to be a back-up plan to prepare them to make it on their own in the event that they are not able to. Obviously, most of these kids are from dysfunctional homes anyway, or they wouldn't be in foster care, so it isn't surprising that a lot, if not most, of them are sadly lacking in living skills. I kinda got roped into going to this thing, so I am trying to make the best of it. I'm sure it will be useful information, it's just that being gone all this week, I will get so far behind at the office that it will be hard to catch up.
