Hi Hap,

-> We're finding that we really did appreciate the fairly consistant temps
-> in HI. (G)  For the most part, summers weren't too warm nor winters too
-> cold.

 hn> Well there wasn't much of a change of seasons there that's for sure!

Not really, but I could tell the almost imperceptable difference when
fall took over for summer.  It showed up in my peak flow monitors,
surprising my even my pulmonologist who had lived there for several
years already & couldn't tell.  Trouble is, it never really got cold
enough to run the oven all day for a slow cooked meal; A Thanksgiving or
Christmas turkey would heat up the house quite a bit.  I think that may
be one reason Steve went with the smoking of the birds.

-> Well, you have the picnic date; maybe you can guest usher at the
-> Nationals stadium or Camden Yards. (G)

 hn> Would love the chance to see a game at either of those parks. I can
 hn> request the time off from the Mariners, but I have no control whatever
 hn> over the schedule of the photo workshops...and while they will be fun
 hn> to do, I really wish I hadn't been finaggled into doing them.

Such is life.  I'd go to one of those stadiums if my favorite team were
playing; I think CT Ruth would join me. (G)

->  hn> Much warmer than a German winter....and some say it's even more
->  hn> bleak...

-> I guess it's good for working on your coat of rust.  People with SADD
-> must really have a time of it there.

 hn> They usually leave after the first winter!

Unless they're military connected and can't get out for several years.

-> -> Steve asked if I wanted to go back to the older monitor; he wanted 2
-> -> wide screens but I decided to keep the one.  He's still having problems

->  hn> Since I do a lot of digital imaging work the two screens work very
->  hn> well for me, I can put my palates and tools on the right screen and
->  hn> have nothing but image on the left.

-> Sounds like a good set up to me.

 hn> I really love it!

I imagine. (G) Do you have one room dedicated to computer "stuff"?

->  hn> I bounce around as it seems my heat tolerance goes up and down for
->  hn> some reason (grin) but I'd usually settle on 4 ish and sometimes 5

-> ON a good day I might be a 4; other days, a 2 is all I can handle. Steve
-> likes hotter than I do; he'd probably go between 4 & 5, depending on how
-> much other flavor in the food.

 hn> The flavor is key for me as well, I'm not a fan of heat for heat's
 hn> sake. chat with you soon

In small doses it's all right but I don't want it ovrepowering
everything else on the plate.
