I did indeed Sally Forth, Kathy - charged through the Sally Port at 0530, boarded the Iron Horse at 0559 and passed the Sentry Gate to the Office at 0656.

A crisp Spring day in the Federalplex. I missed a line squall that came through mid-afternoon - sun was shining when I left the Office late afternoon.

I have a morning rehearsal with my CURRENT guitar player, then four lessons.

Sweet Dreams, FRiends.

Good night, ML! Sweet Dreams!

Sounds like a good day. How’s walking coming along?

Do you read on the train? Visit? Veg?

[PROCON]

In late, Ma.

Is your Mom getting better at driving Reggie?

Working late tomorrow too and then off to Hilary's place on Saturday and then to see Sister and BIL for a couple of days.

[Kathy in Alaska]

We DO remember! d:o)

[Kathy in Alaska]

Travelin’ Man....good for you. Have a wonderful time visiting Hilarywithonel.

She’s doing well. Tomorrow is TV installation day for her bedroom. Then she will have something to do on days she doesn’t feel like being up and around.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Now that would be cool....you are already aware of the characteristics and “mannerisms” of the breed.

Hope you find one soon.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Thanks, Mac, for the Missing Man Setting as we remember those who have given their all that we may gather safe and secure.
