Yes, great that you've decided to go and strong thoughts coming your way :o)

Why not take a folding chair or camp stool with you, so you can save your strength for the important things -- seems to me the only shame is on those who don't show up/care, or can't recognize what's important in the first place :o((. And what about a hat with one of those big wide brims like the 'ol southern belles used to wear [to help protect your eyes, of course *wink*] -- please don't let shyness or self-consciousness keep you from doing what's best for your health, we want you around and able to join us here on the 'puter for a long time to come !! :o)

will be thinking of you Thurs. morning, hope you & Tenoso find each other there OK :o)
