Thank you folks, the support is greatly appreciated
I figure it this way, a lot of reading time, like cramming for an exam
I learned a lot and realize I have not learnt SQUAT yet so going in thinking i am prepared LOL and opening the door to a whole new adventure.
It sure is different than things were 20 some years ago!
I think the fact that things have changed so much, offers me that mindset of totally starting new, and what I forgot from years ago, well let it be forgotten!
Thank you all again!
Tim

Today I made a 1 1/2 gallon batch of grape/blueberry/cranberry storebought wine. I bought these juices a while ago but nobody is drinking them so it is now wine. (I hope).
