Oh do they ever, probably one of the few places you can find whitecaps in wheat fields. I dont think Ive ever seen it over the ditches in that area before.

I'm off to have the same lunch Ive had for the last two months Then try and find a non-automatic car wash in this city so I can see the chrome glisten in the sun for the first time since November .

Going to drive over to EasT Texas this afternoon. Going to Longview to visit my brother in law in the hospital there, then back through Tyler and visit my sister in law in the hospital there. Should be a nice drive of about 5 hours driving time. Now I'm hoping the injectors don't leak!


Be back, late tonight.

Sorry about your family being in the hospital. That's always rough. Enjoy your drive!

Thanks. Brother in law had pnemonia after having surgery, and has always had lung problems. He's 76. Sis in law is also 76 and has so many things wrong it's unreal. On dialysis, double amputee, and now heart attack. Hope none of that stuff happens to me. A lot to put up with.

Well, at least they are in good hands. Some people hate or fear doctors and never get to that point.

We have our contract vote tomorrow. Looks like they reached an agreement. We get to decide if we like it and vote. We've heard nothing but negative stuff for weeks, this is the first positive news.

Contract negotiations can be quite unpleasant.

Went by the 'rents, someone backed into mom's Miata while we were at the marina last night. Left a nice crease in the driver's door.

Off to eat my brisket.
