Happy Mothers Day!

awww. thanks. I happen to like it VERY much too :)

Any friend of Gilligan is a friend of mine, to this day I cannot say the ingredient "ginger" without sounding like Thurston Howell, the third. :)

Great that you like a healthy salad with the cottage cheese, orange jello, and mandarin slices. Am a crock pot cooker often to avoid buying processed foods that have chemicals and that insidious MSG and the 40 other names it has. Have some not too bad hiking pix in all 4 seasons, if you have time to view them.

You mean your phone company up there doesn't do DSL? Around here, you can get three Mbps DSL from AT&T for $14.95 a month and that's a LOT nicer than dial-up!

>dial-up. Still inexpensive.< Three Mbps DSL, at least in Houston, is just about as cheap as dial-up. But it's a LOT faster. On the other hand, I'm running a screaming fast Comcast XFINITY cable modem. They just went through and doubled the speed of their service and kept the price the same.

Hutch? Nice pic of the lift bridge. Did you take it?

$370, lol

Thanks for the note, dg. Hope all is well with you and your family. Happy Chinese New Year! Year of the Snake.
