Hi Terry,

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#GRUB_vs_GRUB_2 says

    On a new installation of Ubuntu 9.10 or later with no other
    installed operating systems, GRUB 2 will boot directly to the login
    prompt or Desktop.  No menu will be displayed.

    Hold down (right) SHIFT to display the menu during boot.  In certain
    cases, pressing the ESC key may also display the menu. 

It also suggests in that list that /etc/grub.d/40_custom is where you
should stash your own menu entries.  And that `update-grub' looks for
other OS.  It looks like an interesting read, with links off to other
pages.
