Mornin' All!

Been a bit since I swung by.

Vacation rolled right in to 2 days at the range for Instructor Re-cert.

Vacation was good, Re-cert was less than exciting. The Dept needs to step up thier training expectancies.....

Still, it was 2 days in the sun.

Haven't had a chance to go back and catch up in the breakroom but I hop all is well with everyone.

You were away? Huh, never noticed! I'd have thought the smell woulda gone away when you did.

Do what I used to do to get a date; grab her by the hair and drag her to wherever you want to go. But you have to TELL her where you're going. Something like, "Ugh, you come with Zog, we go on date to watch wooly mammoths mate now."

Not really... Man, I thought I was going to be on vacation, too!

More good news... I stepped outside this morning to leave, and there was a dang tree on my buddies truck!! Man, he just bought this thing! I've been driving it, so I feel really bad. Not my fault, I don't think, but I still feel bad.

Gonna go get a chain saw and get to work.

I have seen the bad ones - - not fun at all. But, when you find the right one and it fits for both sides, it sure is rewarding. I wouldn't trade mine in for anything.

Funny weather down here - - clouded over about 3 hours ago after reaching 96 - - horrors. Not in Sarasota - - give me a break. Now it is down to 83, but no rain as of yet. That would be nice if it would. Need to get out and cut down three palm trees that have definitely given up the ghost. Just put them in 2 years ago. They were not cheap. I say three trees, but two of them are triples - - so that is seven trees total.

OK, grabbing a ph00 and out of here.

Bob

Urea. It's the liquid version of a DPF. Google it, there is some good reading. I'm not a fan.

Evening Everyone!

Work was good. Wife and I went out for dinner tonight to Buffalo Wild Wings. Had the spicy garlic wings, pretty good flavor!

The MIL is in town and tomorrow night we're having dinner with her. Haven't seen her since the wedding, she lives in Hattiesburg Mississippi and doesn't make it up here too often.
