Aye Norman! I'll raise a dram to those words!!!
Today as I outside washing this bus, it is 105 degrees here in Texas...we received email with photos from our son in law in a FOB in Iraq...it is 117 degrees and you can barely see through the sand blowing...
suddenly it didnt seem so hot anymore

A very kind and proud posting, thank you!!

All the best,
Jim

Smile Happy Independence Day to All!

Would you believe 67 mixed clouds and sun here. A perfect day for the parade and for a long walk (which I took). Thus far the upstate New York summer has been a global warming deniers paradise.

as you know, we are part of the "Transcontinental Convoy Lincoln Highway 2009"
and we watched the Fallon Parade this morning, really a lovely day

God Bless America

Thanks Rick

Ours is Dominion/Confederation Day though. We didn't need to fight anyone for it.
