    It's not a big deal, Possegal. No need to read too much into comments as overly negative or whatever.

    I'm just lazy and like to avoid registering for a password for yet another web based tool that I probably won't use much/at all again. I'm just a jaded user of web based tools and online services which require user ids and passwords..

    I look forward to Maidei's adventures.

    Just as an update ... I've heard from HoosierGiant and we're hoping to be able to arrange an in-person handoff. Mail if that doesn't work, I guess, then Indianapolis next.

    We ran into a little hitch with the transfer. She's heading to HoosierGiant by mail this afternoon. Sorry for the delay!

    She is in Indiana, somewhere. I hope to get her next but we will see where she is in relationship to others in Indiana who might also want her.

    That bike button is like a protective shield that she wears proudly!

    Great stuff Hoosier. So who is the person having her for Christmas? Lucky Maidei. And New Year's.

    Her last hostess crocheted her a little scarf so that she can survive these cold temps!

    I do have her, but between the weather and my work schedule it will be a couple of days before I can take her out on a tour. I DO have a picture of her looking sadly out of the patio door with her bike beside her as the 30 mph winds whipped the falling snow around, I will post it later.

    This Friday or Saturday I will take her out and about and let her see the cool parts of Indianapolis - it would be nice of some of that can be on my bike but we will have to see about that. She is looking forward to getting out and about, regardless how we do it.

    Who would like her next? I could send her in the mail next Monday, assuming that her next hostess isn't close enough for us to do the hand-over in person. She could also spend Christmas with me if we don't want to subject her to the madness of the US Post Office until after 12/25...

    If no one else in Indiana is wanting her to visit, please send her to me in Illinois. We are visiting my son in northern Illinois over the new year, I could take her on a tour of Illinois from one end to the other! Catrin, we could do the handover in person if each of us were willing to drive a couple of hours.

    Cool! I will PM you this weekend after I finally get a chance to take her out and we can decided when/where/how. I am open to the idea of a personal handover depending on what the weather does and how our schedules work out.

    Sounds like a plan. It may be easier to use the mail but it wouldn't be near as much fun! I'll wait to hear from you.
