Hi Hap,

 hn> I have a sword...I'd just sit there sharpening it....
 hn> worked wonders! One boy asked why I had a sword..
 hn> I replied it was MUCH quieter than a gun! (grin)

Shut him right up too,I suspect. (G)

 hn> ->
-> Bisbee isn't that far from where we used to live on Fort Huachuca.  We

-> Haven't made it over there in our visits since, just haven't had the

 hn> I just enjoyed the scenery there!

That's the difference between visiting and lving in an area.  Of
course we enjoyed the scenery as well.  I'm enjoying it out here,
knowing that next week I'll be heading back to GA.  But, I'll get good
seafood there. (G)

-> I'll take something for lunch (have breakfast before leaving the house)
-> and a couple of snacks but without any refrigeration, I can't take much.
-> My flight from Atlanta to Savannah gets in at 8; by the time I get my
-> luggage & out the door, it'll be sort of late.  That's why I intend to
-> have a light supper in Atlanta, with a light munchie when I get to the
-> house.

 hn> we usually take something like laughing cow
 hn> cheese wedges, celery sticks carrot sticks
 hn> hummus in a tortilla, or fruit. Also granola
 hn> bars and such are nice.

Some of the above stuff wouldn't work that well because I won't be able
to keep it cool. I'm going to pick up a few things tomorrow, even tho I
don't fly until Thursday.

-> That kind of schedule works well if you're young and single; you
