Hi gang,
Got internet tonight - - so HOWDY. Wow, actually in civilization. Did the south rim of the canyon today - - have done the north rim several times, first time here. Neat. Long day, but well worth it. Heading into Prescott AZ in the morning for a week. Supposed to have inet there, so maybe can hang out a little more.
Cincy, sorry for your loss - - way too young. Makes us all re-evaluate our priorities when that stuff happens. What is important? 1) your position with God 2) your relationship with your loved ones 3) everything else falls in after that. We can really let little stuff that really does not matter take way too much of our time and energy.
Scotty - - boy, behave. Don't make me come back up there to straighten you and those doctors out. And leave my ph00 alone. .........
Hey, sorry about the problems - - that is not fun stuff. Praying for you.
Marc - - I am sooooo jealous. Driving around up there and seeing those monsters along the road seemed like I could always see them down the barrel of my rifle. Good going - - beauty. Saw three nice elk here today - - had to slam the brakes to stop from messing up the truck and a huge momma while daddy stood there watching. The other female was smart enough to stick with daddy and not jump out from behind trees into the road. Scarry for a minute. Anyhow, enjoy.
OK, hitting the sack - - long day, tired. Ya'll be good.

1921 - KDKA in Pittsburgh, PA, started a daily radio newscast. It was one of the first in the U.S.
1953 - Jimmy Stewart debuted on the radio western "The Six Shooter" on NBC.
1958 - Martin Luther King Jr. was stabbed in the chest at a New York City department store by an apparently deranged black woman.
1962 - James Meredith, a black student, was blocked from enrolling at the University of Mississippi by Governor Ross R. Barnett. Meredith was later admitted.

Got to love the Northeast, they have a tax for everything.
Morning gang. Scattered showers here today, tomorrow and Thursday. Trying to send them to Shorts but I'm not having much luck.
