I'll get right on that. Meet with local bankers tomorrow who I envision are so bored with their own thoughts that they will reach right under their desk into their burlap sack of bills and hand me what I need. And then wink and say, don't worry about it.

Fingers crossed... I hope they give you a great big CHECK! lol
Karen, Jack's a banker, a lender, who does not this really but would be happy to talk to you about what might work, if you need it. Let me know, I'm so excited for the whole darn thing. And I'm ready to move to Brookline, maybe check and see if that bank needs any new people while you are there??? Ally
Karen,
I have no doubt in my mind that you can make this work! I will be keeping my fingers crossed for you!
