We did a training for a construction company about an hour north of us tonight. I always make it a point to go to that one even tho I'm really not needed because they're a great bunch of guys. Well *someone* apparently mentioned to them that today was my birthday and when the class was over, they came out with a birthday cake and sang happy birthday. Kind of a nice surprise!

Good luck with all the med stuff Heidi. The heck with the bear pics, post the the pics from the camera tomorrow when you have the procedure done!

Going to be 80 here tomorrow too Matt. I think a session of lounging by the brook with a bottle of Jim Beam is going to be in order!
I'd be careful about how loud you say that around here, you might not be alone very long.

Mark, nice pics.

Morning gang.
