Hey Rambler Lady,
I knew we had something in common...lol! JRE is and always has been first choice for me. I supported his wish when he asked for support for Kerry, but a part of me would not or could not give Kerry what I felt for
JRE. I really don't know much about your second choice, but if you say he is good, then I'll believe you.
I have a friend whom I visit that lives not far from Detroit, or maybe I should say about an hour away. I plan to visit her this year, so maybe when I go, we could meet for coffee. I'm not sure what time of year it will be, right now I go to therapy twice a week and when that is over, then I can make some plans. I always think it is nice to meet fellow bloggers.
I would love to meet Evan in Australia for a cuppa tea...LOL!
Keep your posts coming...they help me smile

when I really need it the most.
