 >  JM> Had a nice visit and lunch with Ed and his wife, once I eventually
 >  JM> caught up with them.  :)
 > Had some issues connecting there, too...? 

 JM> I got directions from them when I arrived in town and they said they
 JM> would be on the porch and their house number was such-and-such.
 JM> I drove down their street seeing no on any porch nor a house number
 JM> on the mailbox at the driveway.

Apparently you made better time than they expected.... ;)

 JM> The street is sort of a huge U shape.
 JM> I stopped at a house with a guy on the porch who said Ed lived in
 JM> the house across a green area and pointed it out.  (Ed had the numbers
 JM> in the mailbox or something, planning on replacing the old faded ones).
 JM> But his name was on the box, he forgot to remov

Good thing for neighbors.... :)  (and you dropped off again)

 JM> Reminded me of the time in Syracuse when no one answered the door
 JM> when I knocked and I could have sworn I saw a curtain move and heard my
 JM> friend saying to someone "Be very quiet and maybe he'll go away".   (No
 JM> one was home, my friend was still at work).

You've got a lively (and suspicious) imagination there.... ;)

 JM> And like the time I was going to call on someone who left town.
 JM> Another couple even left the country.
 JM> Another had a new cell number and I had only the old one.  (Thank
 JM> goodness for e-mail).

Although, it does start to seem as though people might be trying to
avoid you.... ;)  Good thing you did have another way to contact... :)

 > Nice picture of them you sent.... even if it did come upside down
 > again.... :)  At least Daryl's picture was right side up... :)

 JM> That's because Daryl was standing on his head.  :)

Oh... ok.... <G>

 JM> I don't know what it is with that iPhone.  I can take picture A and
 JM> be fine, Picture B (phone in the same position) is upside down.
 JM> One Windows picture viewer they're right side up, another Windows
 JM> program shows it upside down.  Never had that problem with an android. 
 JM> Must be a iPhone "feature".  

Could be.... :)  Indeed strange, though....
