Amen, my sista!

Nope, not a treasure though. Just plunked down where the good Lord sent me and tryin' to fight the fight so that -- who was it, Thomas Paine??? McHenry??? -- so that my children won't have to fight the fight.....

I'm sure we'll cross paths on threads. Silver linings are good things!

Well,after having seen so many mediocre newbies,through the years,YOU,whether you own up to it or not,really ARE a "treasure" and a blessed addition to FR. And as anyone will tell you,I do NOT often hand out such accolades...nor many of them.OTOH,I do make it a priority to give credit when it is due. :-)

And welcome to our wee circle (LBT & wardaddy& me);the guys are dear,old friends and trench buddies of mine here.You're a most welcome addition to this group,too.
