Dear Midnite Crafter I took had trouble posting pics via Flickr, but with the help of my 10 year old granddaughter I opened an account with www.PhotoBucket.com. I was able to post pics easily then. Good Luck Craftylady sent me this link. Here is a link that might be useful: Posting Pics with Photobucket Good Luck can't wait to see pics!!! Sylvia

Incunable. i would be willing to drop enough off to you somewhere locally if you would like. i have plenty already made and would share. E-mail me and we can find out where you will be and if it is close to my area. Or, are you familiar with the area at all? Are you familiar with the town of Tewksbury, of off 495? Route 38? You could buy a bag of MG and perlite, since that seems to be the most popular one at the big box stores, and use use a 5 to 2 ratio. In our area, I have had good results with 5 parts perlite and 2 parts MG. Sad to say, the trees you get from 4winds are always bare rooted and you need to have a mix at the ready when you get it in. Don't forget once you get your tree to soak the roots for about 30 minutes before planting and make sure to fill in around ALL the roots of your new tree. No FULL sun for about 2 weeks until the trees gets use to the re-pot. Hope this helps. Mike

"when I clicked on "help" (which, b.t.w., I had never even NOTICED before, it said: "A.T.&T. Yahoo HELP" .. guess that means that is my "CONNECTION" .. right? RIGHT??" If you were to click the "ATT Yahoo Help" line, you will be directed to an ATT HELP webpage, where they have a troubleshooting guide. You type in your problem in the form of a key word, then it will try to solve said problem for you. As per the idea that ATT Yahoo browser is part of your "MY CONNECTION", or is related to being a device that connects your computer, your modem to your dsl phoneline, or to the internet, no, this is not the case. Realize that the DSL modem that ATT provided (or maybe you provided your own)connects your computer to the dsl feed 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Even if your computer is off, the dsl feed is still comming in to your home and is ready to go as soon as you turn it on. ATT Yahoo gives you the browser, or "browser enhancement" when you sign up for the service because they want you to use it. They make money from advertizing. It comes with Yahoo! as its default homepage, and most people will just go with whatever the default homepage might be. When you sign up to dsl, they will tell you when the "switch" will be turned on from the phone company. After it is turned on, you hook up your modem to your computer and to your phone jack (with the little dsl filter box), and bam, that's it. Your computer is ready to go online. I believe that there may be a matter of setting up a LAN setting in the Network Connections area in the control panel, very simple, something that ATT will privide the instructions for, or walk you through, but none of the software they give you has to be installed. I personally like the software OK, but it is provided primarily to encourage its customers to stay on their sites, and ultimately increase their advertising revenues. --J

Here's something to get the ball rolling. It's similar to your "L-shaped" version but with a few changes. It provides... Plenty of prep space b/w the sink and range Plenty of landing and work space around the range A large single-level island (over 6' wide) for entertaining and cake decorating (and any other large project) A fairly well-protected Cooking Zone A refrigerator and MW that can be easily accessed by those working in the kitchen as well as a "snacker" looking for a snack or drink - without getting in each others way The MW is near both the refrigerator and a water source - most MW'd food originates from the refrigerator or freezer and most need water added to them b/f MWing The ovens are a straight shot from the range and have 27+ inches of landing space immediately adjacent to them. But, this location would require the pass-through to the LR be closed up. There's a lot of wall space lost b/c of the cold air return and the HVAC, so some compromises may be needed. This is not my only idea, but it's the one I worked up first - it's late now (2am - yikes! - time flies when I'm on the Forum or working on a kitchen layout!) so I'm off to bed. I don't know when I'll get back to it, but at least it's something to start with...
