Hi Dave, Well certainly give me a holler if you're coming to Nantucket anytime. If I'm here, I'd like to meet you and would be glad to show you around. We used to live in VT and hope to move back someday. My work schedule takes me off-island some weeks but if I'm here, I'd like to connect with you. Cheers, Tom
