@mnewville: You're absolutely right - we had the best, most up-to-date news.

@Irene (lovetohike: hahaha, I think I spent YEARS glued to the bb. Those were good years too.

@Meanjeannie*cs*com: Hi, No problem. It was hard for me to read.

@carol (bookdelle): Thanks bunches. I spent over 24 hours working on it and then had to just give up reaching for perfection and let it go because time was catching me.
It's something I've wanted to do for years. If not the tenth anniversary, when? I was afraid it would be never. Yes, some posts are missing and I so regret that. The publishing tool limit is 50 images. Made me ill when I realized that would not be enough to include all of the posts. - What I thought was essential to capture though, was the fact that we all thought it was an ordinary, but gorgeous fall day ... Dear God, I doubt any of us will ever forget. Thank you again.

@Kathleen(lludwig): Thank you so much, and especially for letting me know about the little binding problem I have. 🙂 I was so upset that I couldn't just swoop it all up and publish it; and then afterwards, realized I had condensed it to fifty pages plus a cover. Because the slideshow will only handle fifty pages total, I had to pull a whole page. If I can pin this down, maybe I can still include that page.It would thrill me. It was so difficult to leave a'thing out, I wish the slideshow had allowed a hundred pages. It was for "us" that I did this, and working on it brought it all back with crystal clarity.

I had forgotten so many little details. But they were all there...

We were strong then. I loved us then and I love us still. I'm looking at your photos/avatars and smiling. Y'all are looking gooooooood!

Again, thank you. Hugs to all.
