Thanks, Phil.  One of the very nicest things about being retired is that I
can spend time on e-mail talking with former students about the issues we
face and their individual responses to them.  We had a white Christmas then
on the 26th in came a chinook wind and melted all the snow.  So now we have
floods.  Norman and I leave Thursday for the Texas Valley, Harlingen to be
specific.  We'll detour through Las Vegas for 3 days, make our fortunes,
then head South.  Texas was home to me so I look forward to being there.
Not in the Summer though.  I could never voluntarily give up my Idaho
summers.

Sue
