I'll post about that soon, but I have the replacement now. Bill: Thanks. Bloomington is my hometown, so I'm very familiar. The hills there are small compared to what we have here, but it is still hilly and very scenic there. We had never heard of Frances Slocum until we moved to this area. There's a state park named after her here, where she was kidnapped by Indians. We have read about how she was later found in Peru, IN, and intend to visit the site there sometime to complete the story.
