Always try new things, even if its hard, hard is not impossible. We are smart and it's good to be smart but not too smart for your own good.

There’s a fellow named Boog on here you should look up. He’s not very active, though.

I use to live in Blackwood, NJ down in Camden County.  I still get back there in the summers and down to Cape May on occasion.  Is Bogota near Newark?

Well apparently Newark is 12.24 miles from Bogota, and if someone wher to drive non-stop fro Bogota to Newark it would take about 22 minutes. I got all of this from a Distance Between Website

Keep bumping this up. I bet new folks will hop on this summer as they start finding queens.
