Dear Mary Ellen, et al, Mary Ellen, I'm sincerely humbled by your comments! Regarding my keeping copies of everything I write and send to you guys, I try to make certain that I print them out, file them in a folder and in addition, save them to disk. I've always had the feeling that somewhere down the line my niece or one of her children will eventually review the entire collection of "stories" and feel that the collection might appeal to more than just you and me. But let me tell you this, if it weren't for the encouragement that you listmembers give me to continue to write such stories, the stories would dry up. This list is the outlet I need to say the things I want to say and to share the things that I know from a local perspective. So with such marvelous encouragement, I guess I'll just keep on posting messages. I hope it's OK with the rest of you. luvya, vee ----- Original Message ----- From: "D.E. & M.E.
