I am new to this and I really didnt think it was an error but had to prove to the hubby. I have some others and I am still trying to read through rules and instructions before posting anymore. I also appreciate the welcome's. I apologize for the delay in responding but I dont have a lot of time to devote to this yet however I am working on that. Report this Post to the Staff
