Thanks Bonnie! I think that we're going to be okay here. Don't know about our neighbors to the south and east.

Yup! sure do, mainly in the winter when the old swamp cooler isn't running. Right now it's nice cool and muggy, so less itching.

Yes, Eddy....sometimes it seems that people only want electronics. But you got the benefit of giving even if they didn't acknowledge it.

I can just imagine that bear rubbing up against a tree for a good scratching. Good subject matter.

If you Google "bear scratching" you come up with 190,000 hits so I guess it really must be a "bear thing!!!" Ha! Ha!

Robert... Make it nice and long so that you don't have to chicken wing your arm arm as you scratch. It takes all the pressure off of your shoulder!
