Aub is north of us in the frankish part of Bavaria, near Würzburg. I'm located half an hour south of Munich on the Starnberger lake.
My border collie is a resue, directly from Ireland. I also have a French Bulldog and a Westie.

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman, "Where's the self-help section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

Re: Hello from Ellington, CT
That's over by Lake Shenipsit isn't it? My dad's family hails from the Briston, Plainville area, and now that my folks are semi retired they live down on the south coast. My Nancy Drew books were all gift wrapped for Christmas, but I would usually spend the rest of the day locked in.
