Guest guest Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 I'd like to thank everyone who has emailed back with info. I forget that OC is a BIG area, and that there are a lot of people with the name of Debbie. Sorry about that. Sometimes the internet feels so intimate it's easy to forget. :-) I'm in Dove Canyon, which is basically Rancho Santa Margarita, if that helps. I am willing to travel, so I will look into all the opetions you all have suggested. Thanks a million!!!!
