I hate to be the one to point out all of your misspellings and grammatical errors, but I felt it had to be done. An appreciation for the humor in your message also had to be done. Thank you.

That is a great story of self-taught typing education. Thank you for sharing it, Suzanne.

Yeah, the idea of not having G-2 harassing me on my next bike tour seems almost too good to be true.

Overdue congratulations to the newlyeds, and I refuse to believe G2 when he says no more tours with Greg. I will believe that only when I see it.
Typing - ah yes the days in typing class. I never really got very good at it, but never have had to use it for any career I chose. It has come in use for the computer and iPod though, and I love the self check for spelling ;’-).
Thank you for the chronicle of their tour and I will now look forward to one you do on your own (with maybe that G2 hitching a ride).

I wouldn't believe a thing G-2 says. He's going to come knocking at your door, just wait.
As for typing, I taught myself in order to type my x- husband's doctoral thesis while I sat home with a baby. I might not have been out there building a career but being able to type has been invaluable.

It’s alright, Bill! Your skills in identification of plants, animals, etc is invaluable to those of us who are fortunate to learn of your insights.:)

I agree typoing is a really grape skill! With my slack of corodination, my sophomore typinig grade just barley scarped by with a C-. However, I actually probably douse it more than any otther skill I learned through the end of hihg schooll... My coordination has not gotten any badder, but it is what it is.

At only a week from completing my 78th lap around the sun, I have reluctantly concluded it is unlikely to improve. (You would probably be amazed at how many times I had to stop and backspace out and re-type a word, sometimes more than once in this post.) What takes a normal person 15 seconds to type takes me maybe 15 minutes if I fix mistakes.

Then again, I'm pretty terrible typing with just my thumbs like the youngsters do.

Amen to that, Bob. It was hard work to learn typing back then. Kids these days have it too easy.

Well, I'm very happy for G-2 and Doris. I hope they have a long and wonderful life together. I'm betting we'll see them in the future though.
And by the way, I'm in total agreement on that high school typing class. I can still hear Mrs. Valentine chanting "A, S, D, F, semi, L, K, J", teaching us those home keys. It's a skill I've used my entire adult life.

Probably so. It is just so round, and I am always on the lookout for one within climbing reach. Been a few years.

I don't know, it could be. More likely, it's a squirrel's nest.
