Homestead mailing list

[bob ford <bobford79 AT yahoo.com>]

Thanks Keith.  I didn't know you were still around (the list).  I've wondered 
how your travels were going.  I use to read your journal (now they call them 
blogs) sometimes.

  I'll check your signature to see what you've been doing.  And, I will spend 
time on the other links you provided, they look like good 'bookmarks' .  
Thanks again .......bobford
