Guest guest Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 I will watch for you Charlotte, We will be out of town this weekend and not sure if we will be able to access the internet or not. We will take the laptop just not sure if wifi is available in the small town we will be in. We use Clear for internet and it is not in that part of Alabama yet. R.
