I know exactly where you mean. I love spending time down at the river
- I usually go for walks along the path from the Old Mill up to
Dundas.

So do you go to the new Sobey's at all? I haven't gotten into the
habit at all, keep forgetting it's there!

I know that part too. Lambton, right? Much of it got wiped out
during Hurricane Hazel if I'm not mistaken, hence the 50's
subdivision. Nice down there.

>You know all about the Cheese Boutique, of course?


OMG! The Cheese Boutique is absolute heaven! I make a point of
bringing as many of the uninitiated there as I can. Have you been in
the cheese vault? It's like another world...

I put a gift basket together for my mother's last birthday with
goodies from the CB. Stuff I knew she'd love but wouldn't likely have
seen before. I could spend hours in there every time I go

Thanks! I'm covered. I had a bunch of small plastic dish pans in a closet.
Why I had them is a long story. All drips are covered.

I lived outside Omaha some years ago..

I think I'll always remember the daily Farm Report,
with the price of;
Soybeans, Milo, Pork Bellies, Wheat, etc. etc......

As an Eastern city boy, I can remember thinking,
"What in hell is "MILO" ??

We lived several miles from a feed lot ( also new to me )
and when the wind blew just right....

I was born in Garden City, Michigan. My mother's parents were born in
Romania and my father's parents were born in Lithuania. Lithuanian was
Dad's first language, but he couldn't read the article I sent him in
that language. Oh, well, he's 84 now so shouldn't have to work at
reading. I hope that he is enjoying the thrillers I sent him. Lee

I have lived in Denver, Colorado for over 20 years. We are expecting
our next snowstorm within days. It's been a dry winter so far.

Wow! We're only 3 hours away from each other! We might be able to set up
our own get together like they do in So Cal!

And you are right about the weather. We definitely need more moisture
around here.

Crap. I didn't read this response before I emailed a reply to Karen. But!
What the hoot. I'm actually north of Denver in little Sidney Nebraska. I'd
be coming in from I-76, btw. But if there are enough of us in the general
vicinity, I'm game for a get-together!

More would always be nice, but let's face it - it's a heck of a lot better
this year than it was just two years ago.
