Happy Birthday, Oopen Mike. Really. I'm glad you're alive to read this. I'm sending out good thoughts and prayers now, of course, and when I get home tonight, I'll start up your first #!@$-reduction candle (it'll be cool here tonight, and I'm very careful as regards safety). The check should go out in tomorrow's mail, and someday we'll meet, so I can hug you.
The land itself will recover over time, but yeah, the bridges/water/septic system are gonna need some work. I wish I could run out to help you on that.*g* Take care, Mary
