Housekeeping!

     I just did a bit of housekeeping on the blog page. Changed the backgrounds, added a couple of new likes to the book and movie lists. I don't know if you will like it Dear Reader and I doubt if I ever will as none of you ever send me any comments.

     The Junior Loin Fruit was back to school today. He had his Improv class at 08:00 hrs and so really had to struggle to get his butt out of bed. The Other One dragged his carcass out of the fart sack at 10:30 hrs. I know this because our Friends from Over the Hump dropped in for a coffee at noon and some small talk. I had come home to throw a fresh pot of java on and he was still schlepping around the house. Time will only tell as how this will all play out.

     For those of you who do not live near The Valley or may have but now live elsewhere I must tell you that we are in the midst of the standard winter weather troughs. Bands of wetness assault the Left Coast in a repeated manner. Sometimes there's a lot. Sometimes there's a little but there is usually some precipitation every day. And the Rule of Thumb in regards to the temperature is that if it is colder than 7C in The Valley it will be snowing up on the Beauforts. Once the clouds part it looks real pretty.

   

     I read in the local cage liner that a former Commanding Officer of mine has passed away. L/Col Doug Stuart commander 442 Sqn when I was there in the mid 80's. A great guy and a fantastic Buffalo pilot. There will be a memorial service near the airbase and I'm sure that it will be well attended.
