Hi John,

"ROLLS" is IN! Thanks! I had meant to convey all along that the mother and daughter were rolling along like vagabonds too, but I guess that wasn't clear. (well, at that point, they were "wandering along!) I originally had a son born in one of my earliest drafts, but then I thought it was too weird for a mother and son to be rolling along, as if the son could take the place of the father! The daughter seemed more natural.

Anyway...your change REALLY drives the point home -- THANKS!!!

Lisa
