* 5,456 days ago I proposed to Michelle in the backyard at 4:00 in the morning. I've been the luckiest guy since that fateful day.
* It was 5,494 days ago in front of our closest friends and family, for the most part, Michelle and I became husband and wife at the Marilla Center, it was a great day with friends and family.

* I have 2,471 days to go until I retire, give or take a few hundred days here or there, but I love doing what I do. Who knows, though, doing what I do I may never retire.
* 279 more days until Phil steps to center stage once again for Groundhog Day.

* Older Drone still needs to be sent out for repairs, not a big priority at this time. My little drone is awesome and I really like it....when I take time out to fly it.
* As far as the air conitioner, I was mowing grass Friday and thought to myself, it might be time to take the cover off of it and fire it up.
* Life is much better when you eat Girl Scout Cookies, just saying, Ryleigh would appreciate it.
* Still playing Monopoly Go. I'm still in 4th place among friends and family. I've stayed pretty steady there for a while.

Monday
Here we go yet once again with another fun-filled week. Nothing out of the ordinary for me this week that IO can see. Still working on the project that I have been working on the past few weeks. Peanut and Kiwi on the other hand are dressing a little more business formal this week, me I'm at home working in shorts and a tee shirt. They like to look all professional I guess.
Something I did over the weekend, I purchased one of Grandpa Hall's records. It's My Little Home in West Virginia and it's an old 78, meaning it is much more brittle than the vinyl ones we used to buy (33's and 45's). The 78 Grandpa Hall had a recording Machine where you would put in a blank disc and record right onto the dic. Only problem was, you got one shot and one shot only as the machine would cut the grooves into the record when you recorded. I'm hoping it will be here this week.
Have yourselves a great day

Sunday
So what is on mine and Michelle's agenda? Nothing. No holidays, parties, luncheons or anything else to do, it could be a watch some movies kind of day. I was smart enough to cut the grass on Friday before the rain started. I saw a window of opportunity where I had an hour of sunshine and not evercast to knock it out before the rain started. It had grown pretty good over the previous 7 days with all the rain and then sunshine, I just wanted to stay ahead of it and managed to do just that.
Have yourselves a great day, do something and make it special and just be thankful that you have electricity this Sunday =)

Photo Flashback Thursday
Once a week I like to take a little bit of time out, time to look at some of the 30,000+ photos that I have stored on my computer. Little lost moments in time that I either captured with a lens, scanned or just stole from someplace on the internet. I like to find just one and post it up and recall or relive the picture to the best of my ability. Sometimes this is a pretty easy task and sometimes it's not that easy, one thing it has always been a lot of fun.
Looking at this picture tells me a lot. Look at my sister Kim sitting on the couch, I can almost read her mind. "Does he ever shut up" is what I am imagining her saying in her head.
Judging my the balloon on the TV I would guess this would have probably been Amy's Birthday party, which would be mid-march and if I were to guess the year I would say 1988. Dad had his camcorder out (see case) and Terri actually still had the old Adam Computer that we used for BST Hotline (I even remember the phone number, 296-3030.
Have yoursleves a great day
