Dmitry;

That is good news! Glad you took care of the issue and hope you had a good vacation. I am past due for a vacation and burnt to a crispy critter! :)

Next week our daughter goes to London for advanced studies in Shakespeare. These classes are offered by UCLA. Strange to have UCLA giving classes in England. At least it is strange to me. She was there summer of last year and loves London! I will be praying more than usual! :)
