Carol,

Yes, I remember our visit too.  It was fun to actually meet someone I'd been 
writing to by email.  I hope someday to visit the UK, but it won't be for 
awhile yet.  If that dream comes true, I'll let you know.

As for another dog, not right away.  I've loved having a guidedog.  However, 
I need time to grieve Lear's retirement and to pray about the fit of another 
dog into my life.

Thanks for praying.
