Kris,
No offense, but I REALLY hope that you cannot scoot on over to see us, as I hope that we will be at home by then. If we are in the hospital, certainly, that would be great (but remember, we have the dreaded MRSA flag). Also, if we are out, depending upon the chaos, you would be welcome to visit us at home, but think it might be out of the way depending upon what route you take.
Tom
