Thanks, Char, we will. She goes out at dawn on Wed. Just a medicinal fix for her, she has a kid and a job and a life, unlike me.

I'll see her in CO this summer and we'll be able to spend more time doing whatever it is we do... I'm never sure, but time does fly when we are in the same rooms.

Char, have you tried dumping some Gold Bond powder into your cast? It really helps with the itching (I have a long list of casted owies, in my former life I was a maniac).
