    Greetings and thank you for the add!!

    I am getting quite the collection of contacts in North Carolina - thinking I live on the wrong coast. LOL ;) But then I am getting a mapful.

    Great thing about the internet - if I ever decide to drive across country I will never be more than a few hours from a friend -

    You stay safe out there.
