Thanks Rosemary and L.,

Yeah, not bad......from starting to 6 months it does look like a 50%

R. and I have a special connection. His former sister-in-law and

brother-in-law are long time friends here in Eugene ( was my PT

co-worker at the University) and Ian is their son, 's nephew. He

sings in a youth choir here...and they travel to perform, recently to

Vancouver and Seattle.

Rosemary....let me know if you and ? daughter want to come down for a

Saturday Market (landscape plants and cut flowers, lots of organic veggies,

ethnic foods, music and local arts/crafts).
