Actually, Croc and I are PMing. She's on wifi, about an hour and a half away. We're trying to hook up on Thursday.
And, in case we don't, or even if we do, I sent her a list of wineries and a hot tub resort a few miles from a redwood grove.

elp~

well, now you've gotten part of the lowdown from WR.

(-:

i've been sort of wandering around out here in the west
for the past couple of weeks.
will be out here for another 3 weeks wandering
through forests and along rivers.
having a good time.
rarely have net access, but have the laptop along
as i'm doing a lot of photography and have to
download cameras daily.
feeling well... it's all been good as a way of
recovering from the surgery earlier this year.
dropping by the thread here when i have a chance,
but usually time on the net is so limited that i just
read the last 8 or 10 posts to the thread.
hope everyone is doing well.

get thamester to pony up too.
I thought you were talking about football, or the US variant. Where do ponies come in? Isn't that cheating?

Can I send my losses via Etrade?
<edit> suddenly saw how that read ... not quite as intended!

what I meant is, when I lose the guesses as to which teams I've never heard of don't win against the other teams I've never heard of at a game I don't hear about, can't watch and don't understand if I do... is there an easy way to send along my losing bets?

Memo to self, I must get a US bank account. I just need 38 forms of ID, limitless time and a proof of essential goodness signed by a deity of my choice (non-Muslim) <g>
