It is warp, I was told that would be the most difficult part for me, but I 
will try to do it.

The center in Hartsville sounds like a place I would like to visit also but 
I'm afraid that's a bit too far for me as well.  I will ask around to see if 
anything like that is available near here.

Thanks for the welcome and I will let you know how I do.
