Just a comment to those fellows who don't drive. If it is due to some physical disability I totally understand. However if it's because you are able, but don't have a driver's license,
what's the problem. Take driving lessons and get the license. You don't have to buy a car but if a meet or hamfest occurs in your area you can borrow or rent one and attend. One of you is only 47 and hasn't left the county the other is 43. If I'm being insensitive here, because of personal issues you are dealing with, forgive me.
