A Hundred miles down the road

...my sweet bride called me this morning like she most always does. Wake up call.

I saddled up and took out. I'm a hundred miles down the road. Stopped at a rest area to kick the tires. Everything seems to be holding together OK. Only about six hundred more miles to go.

I figger I'm doing pretty good. Getting about 50 MPC (miles per cigar).

Haven't heard from Jodie yet. I suppose it's not important where we are on the weekend.

Oh....FYI.

Barb got married the other day. She married a combat plumber. ... a guy who is "contract" to Haliburton in the sandbox. He's helping to rebuild the infrastructure for the camel jockies. Such a deal...we destroy all their old junk for 'em and then go in an build new stuff. Kinda urban renewal army style....

Anyway he gets to come back to the world about every three months. They got married the other day and are presumeably doing honeymoonie stuff right now. He's got to go back in a week to finish up. Three more months to go and it's a done deal.

Congratulations to Tornado Gal and her new hubbie.

My brother had surgery the other day for his colon cancer. The docs seem to think they got it all. He's going to have chemo anyway.....just in case. Keep him in your prayers if you will.

Done here....aidios.

Thanks for the congrats on our wedding, EV! It was a beautiful American/Native American wedding titled "the wedding of the centry" by my son Cleve! Ha ha

Honeymonie time in Galveston, TX was awesome - room where front window looked out on the Gulf of Mexico; beachcombing; lots of walking to explore the area; saw "Happy Feet" at a HUGH Imax screen - good show!; Slow stroll thru the Tropical Pyramid at Moody Gardens; Bicycling on a two seater Surry thru the town and beach areas; lots of good food at several nice restraunts; shopping at Wally World; Church on Sunday in Galveston which was great moving of the Lord; LOTS OF FUN!

Wes is enroute back overseas for another 3 to 3 1/2 months. Good news - he has agreed that I can continue to work if I want to till feel more secure. So will continue escorting you Big Guys around for awhile! Look out world, Tornado Gal still on the roads!!!!
