I thought it might be a good idea if we all had a copy of this picture that has
all eight of us together. I am in hopes that this will not be the last time we
are all together for a visit and photo session.

This was from Mom's Funeral pictures, which I believe we all have a copy of.
I did a little editing and thought it enhanced the photo a little.

I guess as, I get older, I think about family more and I am the farthest from
all of you. It was so great to be able to bring Linda (Ellis please note the spelling of Linda) out to meet you all. The fact that Lyle, Theresa, & Tracy were able to be there also, made all the more enjoyable. We really enjoyed ourselves, especially the day we were all @ Ellis's house for the day. Everybody made Linda feel so welcome and part of the family.

I guess I didn't take the time to say thanks to all of you, and I LOVE you all.

Lets see now myself lately I have gone back to work. Part time at Home Depot. Linda is still working in the yard, a never ending job around here.
IKE sent some high winds and took down a lot of tree limbs all over the yard. Myself I had a double root canal, atooth pulled and two caps put on inthe last week.

I guess I'm rambling as I tend to do some times. Linda calls me chatty cathy. Until the next post, I hope this finds everyone healthy and happy.

Well here goes, I thought I would try this blogging thing. 

I just started a job @ Home Depot to pick up the extra cost of gasoline and food. I really enjoyed being retired and just spending time with Linda. We would go and do anything we wanted to and not worry about being somewhere at a certain time. Maybe we will be able to get back to that life style in the near future.

We have been doing an extensive overhaul of our back yard, so I thought I would put a few pictures on here to show some of the work we have done. Of course my wife, Linda, is the master gardener. She spends most of her free time out in the yard making sure that the weeds are not taking over and planting new plants.

I had to do a little work on the pickup, new rotors, callipers, and brake pads on the rear. Not to many scrapes and bruises,just a few.

I guess I will put the slide show on here and give it a try. Please give me feedback.
