Thanks, I got it, although the Light version doesn't seem to exist anymore. I 
do remember the review from Esther a while back, and forgot to search for it. I 
couldn't remember the name ofthe app. I'll definitely check it out.

Thanks,
Teresa

Hi, all,

The subject pretty much says it. I'll be going out into the desert this
