Your road is everything that a road ought to be . . . and yet you will not stay in it half a mile, for the reason that little, seductive, mysterious roads are always branching out from it on either hand, and as these curve sharply also and hide what is beyond, you cannot resist the temptation to desert your own chosen road and explore them. –Mark Twain

We would like to say a special thanks to all the people who sent us their best wishes! In particular, the many people on the COG list that went so far as to send us their phone numbers and offer us a place to stay if we are in their area! This from people I have never even met in person. What a great group of people! I did not get the chance to reply individually to all of you (you know who you are), but we’ve got your numbers. :-)
