Bad: Just a rough day at work. No customer issues but a lot of breaking of procedure costing people to have to waste time fixing things. Good: 11th grade daughter stopped by the shop after school. I asked her to help me understand her, her younger sisters and her moms summer schedule this year (these dang kids got lots going on). Told her the reason is I am surprising her mom with a trip to see a broadway show in New York City. She was helpful and as she was leaving she stopped turned back around gave me a hug and said "love you daddy". Not an unusual event but helped put my day in perspective at the right time. What Lila does not know is that her and her younger sister will be taking the trip with their mother.

Bad: woke up to a trail cam pic of a bobcat in a trap. Got there at 5 to get it taken care of. Stepped out of the truck, turned my head lamp on, and blinked. In the time I blinked he made one big lunge and kept going.

Good: Everything else. Got to spend the day with my wife and our newborn while one of our other daughters was at schooo and the other was with her grandma. If the bad thing I experienced was the worst that happened I can live with it. Truly a blessed man

My father died 19 years ago today. He was a WWll vet, Marines. This is a picture of him standing over the firing line. He joined the Marine reserves after the war and taught marksmanship, something he loved. I look forward to seeing him again in the Kingdom.

Bad-nose bled again

Good-had crab cakes for supper


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.
