Hi Jerry, new gig sounds great, what a good bill that will be.

Ron & Rapaire, thanks for the encouraging words, you are right, we'll just have to go slow and build one voice at a time however long that takes. And there's a reason I didn't reply.   

See, I finished the coffee and stepped out for some fresh air Sat. night, and the kitchen door blew shut. I figured it was time to go home to tend to my knitting etc over Sunday. Tried the door again Monday and found myself locked out.   Today Cluin helped my pry open that little window over the sink and I slithered back in. I gotta remember my key.
