What is it they say about 6 degrees of separation. I would have gone
to Mepham had JFK not opened.

Donna,
One of my goals is to see your part of the world as well as the Boundary
Waters area. Haven't been to Duluth since I was a small child either.
I'll let you know if I ever head your way! Maybe we can meet up for
lunch!

As Sharon said,get the air travel return to Australia with a stopover
in NZ. I did that this year to the US with Air NZ - a great airline.
Come over to the Gold Coast for a week.

I'm not sure exactly where, but I'll check with my husband. I'm hoping it
will be next year, but it will depend on the woodturner's schedule & pinning
my husband down. He also used to fly fish & I understand New Zealand is a
wonderful place for fly fishing. If this all comes together & it's nearby
you, you can give me a shopping list!

bring all your own fabric and supplies, stuff here requires a second
mortgage, including fabric, thread, batting etc. its all imported so
might as well import exactly what you want/need with you, eh.

Jeanne,
I've been trying to get my husband to N Z for ages & finally, he's
interested. He's a woodturner & apparently there's a great instructor
on
the island, so he's supposed to be emailing to find out when he's
available
for a class. Keeping my fingers crossed! I've only been there
briefly -
enough to peak my interest!

Boxborough? Concord? Carlisle? Maynard? Stow? I worked for the Acton-Boxborough
Regional School District. There was a lot of grass roots agitation for a
spelling of "Boxboro" like on the exit signs from I-495 :-). I think the folks
of Foxborough managed to get Foxboro made their legal name, yuck.

Lansdale, Pennsylvania
a suburb of Philadelphia
lived in Philadelphia, State College, Fort Bragg and had a home in Cape Coral,
FL. Kids in Leawood, KS (outside of KC), so spend time there. Traveled all
over North America in the ten years that I was a trainer for Toughlove (that
was another lifetime g) so really enjoyed reading all the geography on this
thread!

Oh wow. Wouldn't a trip to NZ and Australia be neat?? DH was in Sydney
for RandR when he was in Vietnam and has talked about going back sometime.
Maybe when the kids are out of college we can do that. And then meet up
with people I "know"!!! Wow. That would be sooooo cool. I bought a NZ
quilt magazine yesterday. Very nice magazine. There certainly are a lot of
shops in the ads. Who knew??
Hummm I wonder if there are any hospitals there who need physicians with a
specialty in geriatrics for a conference?? I'll have to have him keep an
eye out. That way he could be busy while I go play with the quilty girls!

Central Iowa, northwest of Des Moines, and East of Ames.

How can that be? I thought Ames was directly north of Des Moines; at
least that's what it looks like in my road atlas. If that is correct, it
seems like anything northwest of Des Moines would also be west of Ames.

We know a number of people living in Australia who come from NZ. One
guy gets strip searched nearly every time he goes back to visit his
family. needless to say he is not impressed by NZ officials...

Last time I was in Australia, we had a stopover in Auckland & got sprayed
with the insecticides. I understand they don't do that anymore. That
couldn't have been good for the humans, especially the flight crew. Yes,
you're very close!
