I think I'll just keep a bunch of extension cords plugged in all over the 
house... "oops lost this one, lemme try over here" haha.. just kidding.  You 
know you know all the ins and outs of a house after you've lived there for a 
while, this newbie (well new since last July at least) seemed so, I dunno 
solid.. live and learn.

haha.. wow.. never tried that one :)

I would think so.. :)  This move to Slaterville Springs wasn't soooo far.. 
Maybe an hour and a half- 2 hours, something like that.  Long long winding tiny 
road with slow farm vehicles and few distances of passing lanes though <grin>

Take care,
Janis
