This would be my situation, too, living on the opposite side of PA. The only
cab here would be about an hours drive from where we live. So, it isn't
possible at all.  I guess one solution would be to have a full time driver,
and keep him in a carriage house on the property - at my beck and call. haha
just kidding about that.  Lynda
