Sure, I got lost after Answer #5; if the Hunt was "Heel~to~Toe" (from one Clue to the next), my progression looked more like "Hop Scotch"! *g* Got to the end 'round 3 AM & have been re~reading ever since.

Many thanks to all who had a hand in this. Most especially to Laurels; can't even begin to imagine what you've gone thru while trying to function at work! BTW, regarding that last post of mine? It's probably my browser: I have an iMac & can only use a prehistoric (literally!) version of Mozilla, 1.2!
