Good morning all, from 39f and overcast N.E. Indiana. The coffee urn has just signaled READY with Caboose Stove blend. The special French toast and Canadian bacon. Oatmeal pot is simmering at the end of the line, along with the Dr.Pepper and other non-standard beverages.
Had a full day yesterday as I drove 350 miles round trip to Indy and back. We brought our old synthetic Christmas tree, ornaments, some old photos down to his place. It was both happy and sad. Wife and I bought that tree 51 years ago, to celebrate our first year together. It is remarkable how well it has maintained it's shape and good looks. We also celebrated a belated Thanksgiving with him and his fiancee. After the feast we started putting up the tree. Stories of the past Holidays brought back some great memories. We'll miss that old tree, but it will go on and on.
On the way back, I thought, we didn't see a single deer out there. About 8 miles from home, an unmarked police car came whizzing across the road in front me doing probably 90+. On an unlit highway, I slammed on the breaks to avoid t-boning him. Looked over to my left, and maybe a half mile down the path he was following were probably 5-6 emergency vehicles. The 11 o'clock news reported 4 people dead in that house out on a country road...no further information. Scared the heck out of me, always wear cheap shorts!
No modeling yesterday. Planning on bench time today.
Have a Super day!
