Husband has some errands to run. We're just getting ready to go. Part
of the trip will be a trial run to find TJ's. It opens Friday and
according to their little map, it is located at the juncture of some
busy, fast -moving traffic streets. Also toss a one-way street coming
from our direction. I won't go Friday, but I do want to know where
I'm going so that I don't have to be craning my neck looking for a
turnoff that I just missed ;o( I'll put the ginger cookies on the
list.
