Welcome 2007

Yeah, it's been a long time since I posted. Spent most of December at the beach. Have done this for the past four years and value the opportunity to appreciate the coast. Can lease a two-bedroom condo in December most reasonably. Family members came down to beach some. Enjoyed them, especially grandson Tucker.

Santa was good to us. However, I cannot determine where he left my new Harley. I know he must have brought it, 'cause that was all I asked for. It's not in Florence or Winnsboro or at the farm house or at the beach condo or at Debra's or anywhere else that I can think of, unless it is still at Doug's HD here in Florence, where it was before Christmas. It's a 2007 Electra Glide Classic, back cherry with the pewter pearl insert---FLHTCI, and priced slightly over twenty grand, if you want to help Santa out.

In spite of my wanting to retire, I have told my boss I would stay on one more year, through June of 2008. As much as I want to get to the farm and do other retirement things, like motorcycling more, the money part was too good (and needed) to turn down. Oh well, what's one more year? Maybe the old carcass will hold out that much longer.....

Best to you in 2007. Pray that this will be a good year for us all and that the hostilities in Iraq will subside and our troops can come home. ---pd
