Thanks for stopping by and giving me encouragement. It's been a "one step forward, two steps back" week so far, but at least there was forward movement, so it's not all bad. I really appreciate your kind thoughts.

I played what I always play, whether the transfer be presidential, gubernatorial or administrative.

"Won't Get Fooled Again."

One of these days, that prayer may get answered.
