    I really appreciate your site. The Internet is new to me, being that I just retired. I am reading blogs on many topics, and commenting too. You have made your blog more interesting than most that I read. Thanks for that. I have started my own blog and website. There was a place to include an email and address, so I have done that. Is it ok that I included them? TheVeryBest2You 13 7
