Thanks so very much for your replies. When I wrote first calls or dial ups; I was thinking of the internet as a dial up since that is how I connect to the internet. Might get through faster if we had broad band or a direct line but we don't so have to do on what I have. May not make any difference anyway.

And to Ana; wish I could take you along too or wished you lived closer.

I can go back and read the previous messages but still I think you have to experience this to know what to expect. I may never want to go again but I think it is about 5-6 hour drive from me so it will be a nice get away one way or the other.
