Don't know about the earthquake but sounds likely. Alan would not recognize Pacific Pali and the PCH if he had not been there in recent years. Talk about growth! Ask him if he remembers going to Gelson's mkt after the movies...ah and the 4th of July do-da parade.

The Georgia Aquar has pre-assigned times to enter to keep the crowds down. The Ritz Carlton in Atlanta had a great pkt that included "open time" tickets plus a room at the Ritz for a good price. Dont' know if that special is still running, but thought it might be fun to treat yourself. How's the weather in AZ? We had a frost (for about 2 hours) but it reached about 65 F today. A friend just came back from Augusta today and said it was the same there. Weird Dec. weather.

Jim--thanks for the welcome! What is Mile's City like? We sure appreciate helping us out with our questions. This is such a nice group of folks, I feel so welcome and comfortable!
