Yeah, right across the border.  Actually about 15 miles north of KC in the sticks a bit. You?

By the way ever since a kid I enjoyed visits in the ozarks. Grandad had a place on the lake in a beautiful cove. His place was lake front with a dock, and two doors from the general store. Wish I had his place.

You do have some beautiful mountainous tree lines though. Pretty countryside. Especially in the fall.

  Speaking of lakes,  I am near the Norfork lake and between the Bryant Creek and the White River, in a little community called Dora,  The white is  really great to Canoe or Tube and Trout fish (Blue Ribbon) with the Bryant being the same but fishing is for Small mouth Bass of which it is loaded.  The Mark Twain NF branch is runs along the river.   I tell the folks back where I used to lived (Tampa Fl) that my location is 40th and plum, Which is an old Florida cracker term to mean : forty miles from nowhere and plum in da woods

  What I meant by ice country was ice storms in general, had three in the last four years.  Only had some sleet mixed with rain in the am yesterday. And yes the fall colors are great here, except this year it got to cold to quick and the leaves fell off before full color

And loving it no doubt.   So hows the puter running by the way? Running strong? Just checking.

Thats true on the color. Did the same here. Only had yellow and brown here mostly. Sad.

  What do mean loving it? huh?  that is WAYYYYYYYYYYYYY understated      Every second!  CP is doing great but am going to do some more tweaks in the near future but got to be careful because I sure do not want it to crash and burn.  Well gotta go. The wife is sitting behind me saying it is her turn. Will catch up later  Tim

[tommie gorman]

She must be a member of the wives union.  Are their any different? As far as tweaks they seldom crash a syustem, although I have lost one and almost two to anitvirus. (norton) Of course the ignored virus' did the real job. But they make you feel protected in the meantime. And not all of us are Aunt Bee. 

[tim442]

  Yeah, (union) it was one of those things I didn't see in the fine print when I signed the dotted line  but she is a good un  ......... I fried a couple hard drives or should say I had to reformat and start over due to tweaking and wouldn't you know I did not back up my files But I learned from that mistake. I am no tech expert by no means but have learned a lot by online help, books and ...trial/error ,(see fried hard drives) hate to admit the last part but i found out what NOT to do by doing so, ha!  And I hate Norton, once that booger is on your system it takes deep cleaning to rid the #$%&@#$%@#$% thing. It is a virus in it self. Some what like AOL.
