Yep 40 some odd years is about right. My last countdown was Oct of '68. Holy Cats, where did that time go? The upside for me is that I am now a civilian and the pay is better.



Thanks guys for hangin' around the same neighborhood then.



The only "political" thing I will say is that it is just as bad for some of these kids now as it was for some of us kids then. Some things just never seem to be learned.



Oh BTW - 19 and a Wake Up!

I finished insulating my garage doors and garage ceiling this week. Without anything to heat it yet, it's significantly warmer than it is outside. I think it will work out very well once I put a heater out there.

Wow, got up to 82° F this afternoon, took my grandson to the beach. Still ~70° out at 5:30. Think I'll start the BBQ and we'll eat dinner outside on the "Lanai".

At least up here I can't "see" the air, it's crystal clear and I even get to see stars at night when I bar-b-cue on my deck

I feel for you guys up north! My wife and I are in Kerrville, TX down in the middle of the Texas Hill Country on our Honda Goldwing along with around 15-16 of our local Goldwing chapter folks. We have ridden the roads Friday and yesterday and are headed north to la casa after breakfast. We have easily seen 150 live deer and a bunch of formerly alive deer.



I hear that my 292 is taking shape at Ted's shop, will have to ride down there this week and see it!
