Hi, Rosalie, yours and prior left below for reference, and list, Does "out there" mean the mall? Judging from the ride out in our benefactor's car, it's a *very* long walk. I don't have any difficulty with the walk (though I suspect I'm a candidate for a heart attack with my history and in light of Tim Russert's recent demise), but it would be an all-day affair to go and come back to the dinghy dock. I don't know where it is relative to Tiger Point Marina, where we are, now, but it may become meaningful info once we've returned in a couple of weeks.
