Thank you, Dee. I'm really sorry to hear that you won't be heading this
way again.

I spent half of my childhood and most of my adulthood (until 2000) in NE
Ohio. I _never_ liked it there. I stayed because I felt a certain
obligation to my parents who lived there (I'm an only child). After
both had passed away, I was determined to end up somewhere I really
wanted to be.
