Gee you make it sound like a nightmare. Maybe the MS ride will be
better. I just realized I am in a March of Dimes Walk on May 1st. My
trip to New Orleans is in April. So I will be walking in a peaceful
park with alot of people pushing strollers raising money for babies
born prematurly. I already have my website but I did not edit it.

I want to put a picture of myself and my little great nephew Dominic on
it. He was born too early and now he is a healthy, happy little guy.
Thanks for your take on RIDE NEW YORK. I will be sure to stay away
from it. I think I would probably die.
All Good Things,
Maggie
