My son Joe took off with my boat but, doesn't this picture just make you want to set back and stare at the water and maybe go swimming or fishing?  Or just lay down in that swing and dose off into never, never land...ahhhh Jerry, what lake are you on?

Thanks Les. Looks like a nice area too where you were Les. Camp Graying... Reminds me of when we were driving over there going down a road nearby there some place, I can't remember where we were. My mother in law, father in law, wife and myself were in the car and I was driving. We had stopped at a stop sign. There was a deserted house on the southeast side of the road that we were sort of looking at but, sort of not. You know. Glancing and then looking away again making comments about it, glancing back etc. It was right next to the road. As we started to cross the intersection, about a dozen marines POPPED up out of nowhere, guns in hand, pointed directly at OUR car!!! They were scattered across the top of the building. I guess, the looks on our faces was all they could stand. Within probably 10 seconds, they were all roaring with laughter! We didn't think it was very funny at the time but, I can certainly understand their sense of humor looking back at it. They're lucky none of us crapped our pants!!!

I remember taking the small boat (12ft-5hp) to a spot on camp grounds, my cousin and I just hanging out -all of about 12yrs old- when we heard a...ummm from the Sargent,, there were 20 or so soldiers standing around us and we never heard them...
That same spot was where they had a small home in the woods that they would have tank target practice with...blow it up and then rebuild it... was a neat place to spend the summer.

Hi Howie, The vacation time is/was going sweet thank you. I cut this last one short by 4 1/2 days due to being busy. People are wanting it done sooner than I can usually get at it so I came home early but, I'm still only working 1/2 days this week. The extra $$$ isn't hurting anything either. The weather was perfect up there. Couldn't really ask for much better weather. Hot, humid, great kayaking, boating and swimming weather. I love it up there! Thanks for asking! My son Joe took off with my boat but, doesn't this picture just make you want to set back and stare at the water and maybe go swimming or fishing?  [...] Ooooh, lovely pic! Glad you had fun! Sorry I've been gone, but I'm headed out on vacation myself on Monday so it might be a bit before I check in again. Also, I'm laughing myself silly at all the new stuff!

Better Howie?? Dear God: Is it on purpose our names are the same, only reversed?  Dear God: When we get to heaven, can we sit on your couch? Or is it still the same old story?  Dear God: Why are there cars named after the jaguar, the cougar, the mustang, the colt, the stingray, and the rabbit, but not ONE named for a Dog? How often do you see a cougar riding around? We do love a nice ride! Would it be so hard to rename the 'Chrysler Eagle' the 'Chrysler Beagle'?  Dear God: Are there mailmen in Heaven? If there are, will I have to apologize? Dear God: Let me give you a list of just some of the things I must remember to be a good Dog. 1. I will not eat the cats' food before they eat it or after they throw it up. 2. I will not roll on dead seagulls, fish, crabs, etc., just because I like the way they smell. 3. The Litter Box is not a cookie jar. 4. The sofa is not a 'face towel'. 5. The garbage collector is not stealing our stuff. 6. I will not play tug-of-war with Dad's underwear when he's on the toilet. 7. Sticking my nose into someone's crotch is an unacceptable way of saying 'hello'. 8. I don't need to suddenly stand straight up when I'm under the coffee table 9. I must shake the rainwater out of my fur before entering the house - not after. 10. I will not come in from outside and immediately drag my butt. 11. I will not sit in the middle of the living room and lick my crotch. 12. The cat is not a 'squeaky toy' so when I play with him and he makes that noise, it's usually not a good thing.
