Oh, I'm playing. :) I'll post mine tomorrow. (Thanks in advance for letting me steal your idea!)
Of course I'll play! Thanks for the tag.
This is just the kind of game I like the best...I'll definitely play!
St. Charles Borromeo! There's a name I haven't seen in... well, a long time.
Count me in, but first I have to refresh that long-faded memory of St. Charles.
Well, you see that I played. And my mom did too from my site. Hers is cool, with even a B.C. date! This was a fun idea!
Fun -- will post tomorrow!
