Hi Bill - Thanks so much for your concern and your note. I have been on a two-week tour of the southern U.S. visiting family and friends. I did sign into PS a few times, but I don't enjoy doing so with my cell phone. I am home, as of an hour ago, and you will begin to see me posting poems, commenting, and responding to comments right away. Again, thanks for your concern. Your Kentucky Friend, Milt
