Richard,

I agree about the old apples. When I was a child, the farm we lived on had a
couple of trees of a very light pink apple with pinkish streaks in the meat.
they tasted just like strawberries. This was in a time when you could get
strawberries only in the spring. Wish I could have some of those apples for my
children to taste.

However, my mother's neighbor just cut a tree and my brother salvaged a couple
of limbs for me. there are three more and the neighbor has agreed to let them
stand until I cna cut them this coming spring. I have to supply him an
equivalent amount of firewood plus clean up the limbs, so it is rather
expensive wood. Still, it will be mine
;-)

Why have you chosen apple for your router?

Cheers/Don
