IN fact, I saw less computer hardware than       usual at that one, which surprised me, except       one vendor selling iPads and the like brand new which I       didn't have an interest in.              RW> Yep, great here!

Today we already hit 84 degrees.              Like I noted, a bit cooler here today, only low 70's, quite       a contrast. i grilled steaks yesterday afternoon, though we had a bit of       wind. Just kept a good eye on it.              MH> I have been taking advantage of the nice weather and did some       MH> riding.               Yep, would've been a nice weekend to go cruising on the       Harley.              Regards,        Richard       ---        * Origin: (1:116/901)    |
