LOL Kim!!! I don't think we can quite promise the no earthquake thing - see - they happen ALL the time. Most of the time they are so small no one even knows I use to have a website in my favs that I could go to every day to see what earthquakes happened where, but lost it with my new computer. I don't want to scare you anyway... you need to tell Lisa to move down HERE because we aren't on a fault line... Where is she living - LA is a BIG place as is San Diego! And YES YES YES come down!!! I will kick your you-know-what if you make it to LA and don't drive 2 hours to come HERE! And just MAYBE it will get Miz Smith out here!!!

I just mailed them a house-warming card yesterday (they probably hadn't even crossed into Montana yet!), and I think the city name was Castaica or sumthin' like that. Greek to me.

My kids are wondering how in the world MrsT can possibly be moving to a state that has more people in it than our entire country! "Like, Wow, y'know?!" My dh and I just laughed and told them we might not have such a huge population, but we undoubtedly have cleaner air to breathe! :)

Okay, so I understand the NO earthquake thing won't fly. How 'bout keeping them ALL under 3.7 on the Richter Scale? Can that be done?!

P.S. Did you get your Dad some of the RMCF fudge? Did he like it?!

I have never heard of that town - you must have it wrong You'll have to check!

Delilah just sent me your email addy so check and see if I got it right!

TOOOO funny about the population explosion here in CA! So sad and so true...

Kim, not only did I find out there are the 3 RMCF in San Diego BUT we can use our car insurance card to get a 10% discount! LOL!!!! Each month they send a magazine with updates on where you can use your card - December had RMCF! I told my dad this place is HAUNTING me now!

Shall we be expecting an itenerary soon?! And WHY did my message post twice??!!!!

Nope, I checked and that is the name of the town. Must be a VERY small suburb. I will check my e-mail in a sec and see if there is anything from you. And if there was anything from Delilah, I would likely fall over in a dead faint. Haven't had anything in my inbox from her in MONTHS, although we did get a Christmas card in the mail, and that was great! :) Mrs. Firth is a busy woman, I know.

No itinerary for CA yet. Has Miz Smith told you what my hubby gave me for Christmas?! In March I am going to England. This may cut our California trip-budget a little short! S'okay .... haven't been back to the UK in years. I'm willing to sacrifice a little!

I just carefully re-read my post where I named the town. Only this time I realized my left pinky finger accidentally typed an extra 'a' on the town's name! It's Castaic, no 'a' on the end! (Gimme a break, eh .... who around here can spell and pronounce Okotoks and Etobicoke????!!!! LisaE who lives in the NOTL area doesn't count. She does know.)

Well it must be a small suburb because I have never heard of it (like I am the LA know-it-all!) Anyhoo - haven't conversed with Miz Smith lately - I think she has fallen off the face of the earth Suppose I'll have to give her a ring when I am home for a few minutes! That is great about the trip to the UK! I would love to go back over there. Whatever happened to our trip to Ireland???

I know, I know. You, Kellie and I had this grand trip all mapped out (thank you for the pub songs, btw), but when my hubby found out that my genealogical research was going to take me to Belfast, my word, he put his foot down and said No way, things had to settle down substantially there before I made a trip to Northern Ireland. And I said, How can I possibly help it that my ancestors were ship builders in Belfast???? To which he answered, Lie and say they were ship builders in Glasgow.

Wrong country, dear. Completely wrong country. So close, but So Far Away.
