Hi,

you have to turn auto save off in system prefs/general.  Otherwise, you have to 
just close all windows and tabs before closing safari like you mentioned.  You 
don't have to open your homepage though.  That will still open automatically.

Teresa,
I saw that too, but it's not a checkbox. It's an option that lets Safari open 
all the windows from the last session.
So that doesn't work.
Looks like 1 way of doing this is when I am done and about to quit Safari, 
close all tabs and windows, then open my home page, then quit.
I can't imagine there is no way to just open the home page instead of all 
windows from last session. Otherwise, what's the point of a home page?
