Hey Chris! welcome :)

Where abouts in Milw? I'm in Wauk.

Want to e-mail me directions to this place? we get up in that area quite
often doing genealogy stuff.  Just might have to make a unannounced stop
the next time we go ;)

Always glad to have another Castle person in the area! I think we are
flooded with "air heads" here.  Castle ROCKS!!!

You'll have to come join us in .castle :) the friendliest group around!
We are always open to more people join our ranks and showing off their
stuff!

Again, Welcome, hope you enjoy your stay!
Tamy
