[Rhodes22-list] Foam

[Leland]

Austin,

I frequently drive through Schuylkill County on 81 but couldn't even find
Schuykill Haven on MapQuest.  Eventually located it through your Chamber of
Commerce's website which naturally made it look like heaven on earth.  Hope
you have a good-sized truck to tow your Rhodes through the mountains!
