You'll find a few different types of templates in your dashboard...play around with them. (It's not like you have a million other things to do, right????) (smiles) <br/>Enjoy....Nora Hi Chris!

Hey - go big or go home, right???<br/>Cheers - thanks for the comment! Hey Darryl,

Good to be able to keep in touch via the blog, well done!<br/><br/>They use sand in Sault Ste Marie (my home town) as well. In colder climates, you can't use salt. Salt doesn't do much good when it's consistently colder than -10C or so... it won't melt anything! So yeah, sand it is, as messy as it is in the spring.<br/><br/>Do they use a sand/salt mix at all? I remember seeing that sometimes too, when it was a bit warmer. Heya Nora, Darryl here. Good to be able to keep in touch via the blog, well done!
