Gina, You do tell good stories. I've decided you know how to have fun. No wonder you raise such happy puppies! Carol, I'll bring my Ruby to your house to romp and my appetite as well. Yummmmmmm. Thanks for giving us a blow-by-blow. Ruby did fine with the fireworks. A couple of bangs close by, but she didn't overreact. "Good Girl....Good Girl..." Carolyn
