Let me also extend a very warm Welcome to you, this forum is the best! The people here are the most caring and compassionate folks I think I have ever met! I honestly don't think you will ever regret coming here! I do wish that you did not have a reason to visit here, I wish that for everyone that comes here, but I am happy that you found us!
I was going to tell you that I am from Illinois and we also have weather with 4 seasons in one day, plus a bankrupt state with a history of crooked governors. But with you being from Michigan ( I have many cousins that live there) I am sure you know all about
living in a state with problems!
