Spaw, I just think Bill suspects I'm cuter than you. He & Lorna were having such a lovely time relaxing that they stayed till almost noon today (Wed.), when they *had* expected to leave Monday am. In addition to my charming appearance, lovely personality (& modesty), we've had a bit of snow in this area & they thought it the better part of valor to delay & not go so far afield. They really *do* want to come & meet you, spaw. Their plan is to drive through Mystic, Connecticut & spend the night w/ Vixen. They hope to get to Susan A-R's in Vermont, weather permitting, & then end up w/ Animaterra in New Hampshire. They have been having an absolutely wonderful time experiencing Mudcat hospitality. Perhaps the new locator page will help more of us do the same.

best,

bbc

P.S.--BTW, if you haven't met them, Bill & Lorna are the finest kind & very comfortable guests!
