Thanks Guy- may take you up on that offer. Amazing how dependent we are on
our computers and the internet!! Thanks for all the suggestions.  You guys,
and gals are terrific when someone need help. Now to pack for the flight
tomorrow- supposed to be 20 degrees and possible snow and airport is 90
miles away! Look forward to getting back to the land of the warm weather!!
Hope to see you all at the next event - - -

drive that fit nicely in my new laptop bag! Works great for making backups
and transfering files...
