[nagdu] Before and after class

[Marty Rahn]

hello all,

Marsha, I am curious where you got that box of produce bags? I prefer those 
as my dog has some pretty big piles also, but I haven't had a lot of luck in 
finding out where to obtain them. I'd appreciate any suggestions.

Marty and LDB Monty
