Bob, it was around 50° on the slope while I was there. They had the heat on in the hangar I was working in and I was sweating like pig. I was walking around in my short sleeves while everyone else was bundles up. Having to go back into work for another inspection this weekend. Weather's been great on the slope so they've been flying 10hr sorties daily. So much for any time off.

Can't believe another week has come and is now gone. Wow, getting old fast. I still have not conquered Denali - - I better hurry. .....

Fresh ph00 and coffee on the counter along with some banana/nut pancakes. Ummmmm yummmmm. Brought some back from our favorite little Breakfast Cottage this morning. Don't hog them - - share.

Amazing how your body adjusts to things. I remember my first winter in Minnesota - - wow, I froze just looking out the window - - by the end of the winter I was going out ice skating at 20 below and loving it. Likewise coming to Florida - - you swelter when June hits, but by the middle July you just expect it, dress light and it is the norm.

OK, off to conquer the world - - - well, a couple tidbits anyhow.

It is, but until I can find something less painful for employment I'm stuck with it
