Footnote:
I apologize for leaving the site abandoned for quite a while. Due to extended family illness and craziness from a pandemic, I have not updated this site in some time. Things are better under control at home now so expect to see updates on a fairly regular basis. At the very least, expect the news page to receive regular postings.
I hope you like the new format for the site. I did this with RapidWeaver 8 running under MacOS Big Sur.
