Thanks.  Ya'll have convinced me.  I'll start this week. Thanks again.

Incidently, I've found a good site with lots of Pioneer history.  Just go to Washington Pioneerson the WEB.  Quotes, and pix, and maps.  I've found two names from my family in it.  (I tried to send some of it but the Web Master said it waw too long.)
