Hi Cherie,<br>Great, welcome! I don't want to insist on any sort of tight time frame for this project. I'm happy to keep it going on a rolling basis so that as many people who are interested can participate despite their other obligations. So please let feel free to join in when you're finished with the house (and good luck!).<br>
Likewise, Charles feel free to join back in once you're settled in Brazil (and also good luck with that!).<br>Best,<br>Erika<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Jan 21, 2013 at 9:51 AM, Cherie Wren <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:cwterp@yahoo.com" target="_blank">cwterp@yahoo.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
