Thank you Carleen,
that is sweet of you!  If I come, I will drag ! along my DB, he will
learn to love this stuff, if I have to kill him!!  After all, I watch
golf matches with him!  I just wasn't sure about the dates and we will
rent a car, so that won't be a problem.. If we do come, I will be sure
and let you know.  It would be fun to meet you in person.  There are some
accounts in Portland that a visit there could surely be justified!  For
some reason, I thought a show was in progrss during that month.  Isn't
there a park/japanese gardens there that would also be in bloom?  I
missed it last time I was there!
Thank you for all the info!
Regards,
Julie
