Title: Saturday June 8, 2024

Good Morning;

I will be taking my long time friend to the airport this morning. I've known John since cub scouts 60 years ago. We have seen and done a lot together over the years. Best man for each other's weddings, at children births, and family deaths. Man has time flown, as has this past week. The travel highlight was going to Cape Canaveral. If you have not been there put it on your list, the place has really changed for the better.

I hope to get some bench time in latter but that fills out the day. Hope everyone has a great day.

Jim

Good morning.

I've been mowing fields with the brush hog pretty much rain or shine.  I got wet, though not totally soaked finishing up mowing a field on the top of the hill a couple days ago.  I'm headed outside now, coffee was just too good this morning to get an earlier start, to mow more ground.  On the plus side, the farmer that is using my fields came and no-till planted corn into the fields I had mowed thus far.  That being finished, I have some former pasture left to mow as well as some trimming along the fence lines. Fingers crossed I get this wrapped up soon and can find some time to model.

Morning all.

A bit sore today after increasing my walk to over 4 miles yesterday and then coming home and cleaning.  I'd almost forgotten the floor in my office is white.  The new computer is working and I will spend the day downloading and transferring files.  

Getting to the Cape for a launch is a bucket list item for me.  Barely missed Gemini 6 (?) in 1968 when I was a kid.

Morning all,

A visit to a vineyard is on tap today.

We prefer Kennedy Space Center to the theme parks. Went there last October.  The new Atlantis display is pretty cool.

Have a great one!

Afternoon all,

Up early to edge and cut the grass. Man was it hot even at 8AM.

Later this afternoon, Pam and I are meeting long time friends of mine in Winter Garden for dinner. Tommy and Tony had been  friends of mine since we were all 4 years old. Yes, Jim, time does fly.

Have a wonderful rest of the day ya'll.

Tom
