  2. And they do pace. Here on the East Coast, some of the old houses near the ocean have a tiny walk on the roof known as the Widow's Walk. You can guess how it got that name.

I love comments and will attempt to reply to each one. However, lately I have been getting "Unknown" comments that are linked to some sort of web page. I will never open this sort of comment and will immediately mark as spam. I am not interested in opening something that could be detrimental to my blog security etc. Never have enjoyed hackers!
