I Don't Get It?

My wife wanted me to stand next to this sign along the Blue Ridge Parkway so she could get a picture. I still don't know why.

Nice Visit

Had a great visit from a new Friend I met through other friends. Gannon McHale, an actor now working at the Barter theater in Southeast VA. He is also a former shipmate from the Sturgeon. Although he served over 15 years before I got there, and an author to boot.
It is always wonderful to meet new people and make friends, it is even cool when you can butt heads over something as trivial as Politics and still remain friends.
He even got to Jam with my son and friend Adam.
It was especially nice to have company as I seem to be trapped at home with my my left arm all wrapped up and not wanting an infection to hamper my return to work.

Looks like 16 staples and most of my spur is gone. Yes it does hurt, but it has hurt for over a month since I injured it.

Elbow problems

Had my elbow repaired on Wednesday. I had a broken bone spur removed and bursa sac removed. Hope it helps as the pain has been unbearable.

Deer

Got Jakes deer back from The Taxidermists today. Jeremiah did a Great Job! Nice shootin Jake. Actually had him as our main course at dinner tonight. also here are some little ones...

Memorial Day

Had my nephew Blaine over for a visit this weekend. He is teaching at a Golf camp in Richmond for the summer and had the whole weekend off and spent at our home. Unfortunately I work 12 hour shifts of Fri,Sat,Sun.

But I had Monday off and we had a little get together with our Neighbors and friends. Jake even had friends from church of the Female persuasion. I know I had a good time

Skating

Took the Family to Liberty University in Lynchburg and we went Ice skating. It was fun for all!

Have not put my skates on in almost ten years but when I laced them up and stepped onto the ice, the cheering started! The fans went wild! Both of them. Still was able skate and not fall. Luckily there were no NHL Scouts in the seats this time so my phone won't be ringing off the hook again...
