Hi Dave,

DD> Those are all banged in, formatted, and ready to post

RH> Something to do in your spare time?

DD> I don't watch TeeVee - except on rare occasions. And being retired
DD> from the "mating game" I have lots of "free" time. And I am interested

I've got enough other diversions that free time can be very limited some
days. By the time I've caught up on everything, it's time to call it a
day, even late at night. (G)

DD> I know the words to that song. Will this be the first outing for your

DD> I'll probably never move again ... voluntarily anyway.

RH> We're talking maybe to AZ after Steve's mom passes (hopefully not for a

We lived in southeastern AZ (Fort Huachuca) for 8 years; that's where we
got acquainted with Fido in January, 1994. We're thinking about Sierra
Vista, the town right outside FH--every time we go back to visit
friends, it feels like we're coming home so a couple of years ago we
decided that SV would be where we'd like to settle.

That area of AZ is a lot hotter than the high desert; they don't call
Phoenix "the Valley of the Sun" just for a name. FH/SV is usually 5-10
degrees cooler than Tucson, 15-20 degrees cooler than Phoenix.
