Hi Diana and Katherine-- I apologize for the use of the vulgar term "getting laid" which I meant as a humorous reference since I was talking about renting the cabin for the woman with who I've been in a committed monogamous relationship for many years. I agree that euphemisms are a much more tasteful, creative and respectful approach...if the subject should be broached at all on a list-serve such as Cave-Tex. Frank
