Hi Michael,

Easily, more than most of the folks on the echo. While Steve was in the
Army, we did a fair amount of travelling but haven't done nearly so much
since he retired. Still, we've tasted a lot that a lot of people have
never heard or knew about, some we knew prior to coming into the echo,
others, new to us once we got on to the echo.

 ML> Yep, I endorse that.

We're a part of it now, both on the vendor side and on the buyer side.
Steve works at the American Legion/VFW booth, I'll work with either the
Quilts of Valor or the American Legion Auxillary booth. The latter 2
aren't regular booths so sometimes when I'm done shopping, I'll sit with
the guys for a while.

 ML> That would be tres tres cool. Of course in Europe often

I'll try to remember, next time we get to Lowe's. I think they've got
the best price on turkey so may try to pick one up this week.

We've "outgrown" putting up our own food as a whole in this society.
Only ones that do so on a regular basis are not a part of the main
stream America so they aren't as recognised--but they probably add to
their sausage ingredients that wouldn't be found on most American
tables.
