"Still Falls the Rain...."

Weather man promised rain by evening as a front moves through. He was wrong. It was raining when I awoke around seven this morning. Maybe it is moving through faster and will clear up in time to ride the Harley some later today.

Went to a funeral yesterday in Dillon (SC) for Tommy Dean. "Skeeter" was my son-in-law Tim's step-brother who was in a motorcycle accident during a poker run last Saturday. He was 42 years old with two sons and a grandson. It was a large and sad funeral. The minister had much to say about Mr. Dean's good works and what scripture has to say about good works. The motorcycle club to which he belonged provided an escort for the procession. That in inself was to me very moving.

My son Kevin worked more on the old bread truck this week. He has replaced most of the lighting and done extensive rewiring. We still have a lot to fix----brakes, exhaust system, steering, for example. Kevin and Christine moved to Easley this week as they began Wednesday with the Powdersville EMS/Convalescent Services as full-time employees. I miss them already. Kevin said Wednesday night that their first call was a code from a nursing home, but that they had seen and done a lot that first day and were enthusiastic about the work.

Guess that's it for now......pd
