Good time to get a bit of color Wen. Get out there and enjoy it while it lasts. We get a January thaw here as well, which consists of a couple of days to a week with above freezing temps. ....yippee.

Pics of you and Squirrel cruising?

Reading thru Forbes, stories of young peeps making their fortunes. By that measure, I'm a failure. Hell, I can't even turn a profit in my wood shop.

Guess I'll never make the pages of Forbes.

Shingles let you know when your immune system is run down...that's when they show up. Big PITA.

I got it when I turned 42 and retired from the rat race. Not wealthy, but comfortable for my needs. I keep pretty busy, that's the key.

Good for you. I've gained about 25 this winter sitting around doing nothing. I'm mad at myself after losing almost 100lbs a few years ago.
Somehow I get you confused with someone else on this forum....Darrin. Senior moments I guess. They both start with D....

Oh well, if I forget in June.....happy 52nd!
