Congrats, Doc!!
I had lunch and spent a few hours talking non-stop with a g/f I haven't seen in over 15 years. It was like we just saw each other yesterday.

First camp-out of 2011
For the last couple days, our 4YO grand-daughter has been wanting to camp out, so we set it up for last night. We didn't range very far, really just out to the edge of our back yard, but it had the desired effect.
Campfire & stories, ribeyes & burgers, roasted marshmallows, star gazing etc... things were going awesome. Then around 0100 or 0200 - depending which clock to believe - some distant coyotes woke up our intrepid camper "Poppy! Those ARE NOT doggies!" and she popped smoke on the whole gig.  She wasn't buying into that old "They are more afraid of us, than we are of them..." line either.
Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. I'm looking forward to her briefback later on when she rises.

Thanks
Mounted the motor and we went into the bay here and were stopped 3 times in an hour by the local water cops...... Park Service/Old San Juan PD/State PD...
When asked why they said they had not seen this type of boat there before........... Thank god they do not drive the streets or they would be pulling every car over with that outlook..... Luckily I had all the paperwork in order..... Well off on Monday to get the registration finished..... Temp tags are a hassle....
Came back and had breakfast and went out to the point to do a dive. It was so much easier to zip out dive and return without wasting the whole day.......
Off next weekend to Culebra........ wil be my next Happy Thought.

Yeah, I’m having Richard’s quote made into a digital calendar.

Four hours on the range with some SF students. Doing my part to corrupt young minds!

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.

Sitting on the couch with the 4 year old man-cub entertaining random questions about lizards, swords, and rain while watching the lightning storm. There is no place I would rather be.

I dunno...how long does it take for embalming fluid to be completely metabolized by a corpse?

Cool.....
Please make two and I will gladly not only pay for mine but probably yours also. I can see it already sitting on my desk.
