I have that picture in my den. Loads of very good memories.
Oh, I still have that hat as well.
I saw you right away. And others no longer with us. (nt)

Bittersweet memories. They still make me smile though!
The person resembling.....
a garden gnome behind murbach is me.....
the juvenile delinquent behind tony b. is number one son and now 33. he is a d.o.d. civil servant by day and a patona city town burgher/vicealcalde by night.
When the kids were little I always said I was okay with whatever path in life they chose as long as they weren't bank/train robbers or politicians. Well now he's a local politician with upward county then state aspirations.
Are you gonna make the April CSA? (nt)

Alas, No.....
all work and no play makes ray a dull boy.....
I'm a public health civil servant in a position that has to be on-watch 24/7/365 and we are hopelessly under-staffed with only four folk with schedule set up for five. If I take off to go on vacation, somebody has to work 9 to 11 twelve hour shifts in a row.
But there is light at the end of the tunnel....we have a retiree coming back & retraining for part-time relief & a trainee halfway through his two year apprenticeship. Fingers crossed & ardently praying he can pass the exam. Having to work every other weekend and every holiday is a deterrent to the new guys in terms of recruitment & retention.
A bonus day off without worrying about inconveniencing a comrade's day off will be quite a blessing.
Too bad.

Even though we were both there, I would enjoy "re-meeting" you.
Same year, I think?
