Had a wonderful time with my new friend Carol Taylor whom I hope to interest in joining one or more of these lists, but only with the Lord guiding me in this endeavor.  I hope that, by God's matchless grace and His providential care, that your day went well or if you live in other parts of the world, that your Friday is going well.
