Re: [GSAS-Member] live food meeting



Oh, how I wish we could have been there!  I really have this "thing" about bugs 
and don't think I could handle live critters like that, but I'd love to have 
been there and seen them and learned more.  Some day, I may overcome this 
phobia and ... well, you know.  But, when the escrow company calls and says, 
we're closing this afternoon, we dropped plans for EVERYTHING!
