Skype is great. I wish my dau. back east could afford internet. Maybe now that she has graduated. It's been twelve years since I've seen her and my grandsons and no Christmas together since 1992. Too long, but we do all muddle through. Morgan, the grandson who is here, may also be gone for a few days at Christmas, but at least we'll see him before and after. SRS, good to hear your son got in all right. Ad. hope your son doesn't have to be gone too long and he gets a return ticket!
