All this talk of retirement.

I guess at 53 I'm too young to picture it. Plus I'm just starting my practice. I'll probably get old an ornery like Doc on Gunsmoke. People will pull me out of bed to look at their bunions and I'll gripe and complain that it's 10 o'clock in the morning and why couldn't they wait till Friday when I had my regular hours and look at them anyway.

Might even open hobby store;)

Well the fog lifted yesterday and we were visited by several pods of whales, which believe it or not is not uncommon in these parts. Still kind of swell watching them go by.

Mornin' Bill!

Mornin' Jeffrey! Very sorry to hear that your Mom is not well. Hope she makes a quick and complete recovery. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Mornin' Chip! 53? I retired at 53 and haven't looked back! BTW, 13 lbs. as of this morning.

Mornin' Fergie! It is neat to see a pods of whales! I sure hope they aren't packing there belongings, waving, and saying, "Bye, Thanks for the fish" (paraphrase) ;-)

I'm waiting for a couple of arrivals today. Toner for my printer and...... well, I'll tell you all later.
 
Here are some interesting facts I found out today.



World's Tallest Building



The CN Tower-Canada's National Tower, is the tallest building in the world.



It measures 553 meters (1,815 feet). Here's a great picture of it that I managed to take.

The tallest point of any man made item is in Fargo ND... Measuring in at 646.4m or 2,063ft.

Oh wait, we're not looking at the tower are we?
 


Jeffery,

Best wishes for your mother.

My 90-year-old mother-in-law is coming home from the Nursing Home/ Rehab on Friday--exactly 1 month from when she broke her hip. Funny, doesn't Medicare stop coverage after 30 ddays?
 
Hi all! I have been waiting all day for a couple arrivals. My printer toner that I needed arrived about a half hour ago, installed it and another color is empty..... Grrrr. Then my son called to tell me that the other arrival has just arrived as well.

Ta, ta, ta TAH!!!!!! Announcing the arrival of Olivia Diane Howard at 2:18PM this afternoon. The package weighed in at 9 lbs. .5 oz. and both Mother and Daughter are doing well! I'm finally a Grandfather! My daughter in law went into labor yesterday morning. Olivia is born one day before my Mother's birthday (Flag Day - June 14). Heh, heh, I get to go to a retirement party for my former principle in just a few minutes. I think I am going to have fun...... (Great big Huge Grin!!!)
 
Jeff, I'll keep your mother in my prayers

Chip, that tower seems a bit top-heavy, ya think? ;)

Ray, congrats on becoming a Grampaw! I'll pass on the cigar though...


It's been thunderin' and lightnin' all around my office this afternoon, but no rain yet...
 
Congratulations Ray, all the very best to you grandad
