Sorry people for the extreme(!) lapse. I died but , I got alot better. Been out and in country working and now the fun stuff...I treed a porcupine the other day and actually caught a raccoon (mean little thing). I move my parents in with me in a couple of weeks so when you get older remember, they took care of you when you were all snot and diapers and it is your turn to take care of them. Lots more going on and just had a second to get this out.

I got back late Friday. It was horrible in Cocoa Beach. The rain and wind coming through each day for about 20 minutes was just awful. The sun was shining full force other than those 20 minute periods each day. Everyone was sporting some sort of extremely revealing bathing suit (band aids more like it). Got a room with a loft on the beach for better viewing of the ocean. Scarfed down lots of sushi and even some hooters wings. Fought the battle for world domination yet again to a draw. I love business trips but I hate travel. I left Florida just as the cold crept in. It snowed up here in MA. I think we got 17 inches with drifts up to my waist in the front yard. Later...
