Great story and even better solution. I've never been what some people label as "handy around the house." Anytime something breaks, my solution is to call for help and write a check. It's in reaction to growing up in a poor family in Kentucky. One summer, I was forced to help build our 40x40 garage from concrete to roof. Another summer, I helped my dad dig a basement under our house by hand. When I complained and wanted a day off, he'd have a load of wood delivered to the house and have my chop it up before I "took the rest of the day off." These days, Darrell rocks whenever I need him, whatever his name may be. :-)

Hi Richard , thank you for your story. Always good to hear from you and to read your well written letters. Can't wait you being in Paris and the Sacré Coeur !
