August 3, 201312 yr Welcome aboard Lyn, glad to have you. Sounds like you have a plan and are on track to make it happen. Smooth sailing through school and here's to finding a good partner. Frosty The Lucky.

August 4, 201312 yr Hello Lyn. I'm 37 and just went back to college last year on a 3 yr program. I'll warn you that it's not an easy transition back into a school setting when you're 10 ~ 15 years (or more) older than all of your class mates, but I'm still finding it a very rewarding experience. Best of luck with your studies!
August 13, 201312 yr Sure wish you had been around about a year ago last spring. My wife and I were in Brecon for a sheep and wool affair and I could sure have used a hot steel chaser!
