Thanks, Marty (by the way, we are on top o' the TIME issue- more in a private E) for the mention too bad we can't take Sarah to the northern branches as well I offered her a bike to borrow (and even a car toi use but it's up north in Mt Airy) so she can get arounbd the area- the College Park Airport is neat- a coupl;e of old bikes in there in the Wright display- and she can zoom up to Proteus too to see Jill. and the few oldies she has there too.
