If there weren't trials and tribulations, "fun" would have no meaning!
Welcome! As you can see from my join date, I am a newcomer as well. This is a thriving forum. Although I am not new to the D.R. -- this is my eighth time here in six years and, when I come, I stay for one-half year, or more; this time; one year.
But, as they say, "two heads are better than one." I think you will be equally impressed by the quality of the knowledge and expertise of many folk at this forum.
Those pesky and lingering questions? Ask away! Enjoy and be safe!
