Nathan,

FYI:  Tampa is being handled by Kathy Martin, I can handle St. Paul (and
there are others too).  Not sure if we have any members in Detroit????

So, except for this year, we are good to go.  Sorry that the cloning process
would take longer than we have right now... to handle Detroit. Good luck, I
hope something works out for all.  Sorry I will miss it again.

Carol, QoGH
Cruise Director Emeritus

There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of
power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are the
messengers of overwhelming grief, of deep contrition, and of unspeakable
love. -  Washington Irving

"The work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives and the dreams
shall never die. " - Edward Kennedy
