    hey, Jeff!!! I just joined this!!! I  am still trying to figure out how to navigate through the pages. I don't know that many other York guys are on here. I actually have two profiles on here, one for York and one for Salem that way I don't get my identities confused.  Paul Balentine I use for York and Paul A. Balentine I use for SFD.....I look forward to seeing you in a few weeks.
