Hi Mark.  Congrats on both these things!  I think you are wise to attend a
center before you get a dog.  Doing it afterwards seems like a hassle. 
When will you be going to Blind Inc?  I thought their course took months
and months, but I guess you'll be done by the end of July.
Good luck with it all.
Tracy
