My optimism may well be misplaced. Oh, well. Won't be the first disappointment, if that's what it comes to...we'll just carry on.

It might be worth checking out)Peewithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10673172358192519373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5849327642610184563.post-55991969217797018512008-09-17T12:26:00.000-04:002008-09-17T12:26:00.000-04:00Wow, Ralph, all the news sounds really good, and I...Wow, Ralph, all the news sounds really good, and I hope to see a new house by summer.
