I'm a total electronic newbie that is gathering experience while 
tinkering.  If the UART is burned on this node, then so but it, far from 
the end of the world.  I would still like to know how to go about getting 
my goal accomplished.  Also, I do not have an oscilloscope or logic 
Analyzer, but if this is the suggested hardware to get this done, then I'll 
get my hands on one (one way or another).  William, please provide me with 
you suggestions on the recommended methods for getting these two to 
communicate.  Keep in mind that I do have a logic level convert from 
sparkfun in my possession.  Thanks for any help you can provide, it is 
definitely greatly appreciated.
