What wonderful news!

I couldn't resist. I looked Visalia up on my old tiny atlas. It looks to be almost halfway between Fresno and Bakersfield, but I's not too clear if the road it shows is I-5 or Highway 99. Visalia is a little north of the half-way point, and a smidge east of it. I'd always though it was nearer to Los Angeles, so I'm glad I looked it up.

This has GOT to be a terrific Christmas present for you. I know how you worry and suffer over your 'bad boy' sweetheart Cirrus. LOL over the volunteer's switching between his names.

ConCATulations for this terrific news. I'm thrilled for you both!

P.S. Somehow this afternoon I've started sneezing my head off. I hope to avert a cold w/those "Airborn' fizzie drinks. Can I suggest you take some, or something similar, in case I was contagious at lunch? I really thought I was just tired. Sorry to expose you to ickies.
