Hi peregrina2000 & thanks for the rapid & very helpful response. Soon after I commenced planning this adventure I realized that the selection of a route was going to be problematic. Here are my initial thoughts:

This is my first substantive post on the forum although I have been an avid fan for a number of years & each Sunday enthusiastically look forward to perusing the weekly email.
I want to begin by thanking with gratitude every person who contributes to the forum ... Ivar, the moderators, those who...
