There are hardly any folks still posting on this one Susan. I just leave
it alone mostly just in case any of the old timers show up. I suspect
there aren't that many people who preserve their own food and use
computers too.

We live in an area of Harris County, TX (Houston area) with probably 20
to 30 thousand people here. I have not run into anyone that actually
preserves their own food beyond Miz Anne and I. Tried to get some to
come over and learn, none were interested.

It seems most folks here, other than those of us who are retired and
stay at home, that do anything other than go to work, come home, eat, go
to bed.

I will miss you. Take care of yourself too.

George, Miz Anne, and Tilly Dawg
