Good morning Woods. Nice cooler day here. Heats up again this weekend though.

Thanks for that "heads up" Russ ... I see it originated in Lewiston, ME ... Been there ... Beautiful country ... Acadia National Park ( nearby ) is something to see

Very nice selection John! I do say sir, you've come a long way.

Morning's greeting Woods. TLT and the girls are home. I've only seen TLT and Layla (15) from a far. I have to paint the picture. The house runs North to South, the deck get's great morning sun and afternoon shade. Layla's room is near the deck, but off enough you cannot access the window. So, I get home and Emily (12) is excited to see me, and I her. She's my little biker buddy. She asks, "Have you seen Mamma and Layla yet?" Of course I had not, they're in Layla's room at the north end, my room is to the south. So I get some popsicle sticks and go out onto the deck and start throwing them at the window. Click, clack. The window opens, I greet them from a far, yelling across a 10 foot gap suspended 8 feet off the ground.

Emily and I made them supper and left it in the hall for them like take out and home delivery. It was silly, but kind of fun.

Well the doc worked on my upper back today. Said it was really tight. Got that loosened up and that feels better. He gave me some excercises to do. Next appointment is Tuesday at 0745. I can at least walk a little more upright!
Chris, here's hoping that TLT and Layla don't get used to the room service. And if they do, I hope they tip well!!

This version won't kill me. I thought I was going to die with the last one though, and that's not a joke. But, I can barley get two days off to see my family, imagine what he'd do if I lost a week being sick. I'd never get to go anywhere. Than I'd REALLY never get that camera.

Oh, the other day I had to go retrieve surveillance footage. He asks if I have my county phone then stops and says, no of course you don't. I did... I said, no, but I have my personally issued camera that can take video and my tripod. The look on his face was priceless. I walked out happy, and he was pissed but couldn't say anything.
