Just got a call from the wife. She's on he way home going past Palwaukee airport north of Chicago. "You should see it" she says "there's a big WWII airplane here with a crowd around it". "Describe it to me" I ask her. "Its Big!" she says " It's red and white with two round things on the tail" "It can't be a B-24" I say "there's only two of them still flying. Does it have a nose wheel or is it a tail dragger?" "Nose wheel" she answers. "It must be a Mitchell" I say" "No" she says "It's big!" (yes, my wife knows what a B-25 looks like)
So I go on line to the Palwaukee site and sure enough Witchcraft is there today, and its the last day it will be there and it's already too late for
me to run out there

You should go for it!
You are aware that Gary (Geedee) is touring with them right now, right?
T Bolt
Colonel
No I didn't know that. What's he doing, helping out with the tours? It would be great if I could meet up with him. He's the one that first got me involved with the Forum.

Gary signed aboard with 'em for a tour...think of it as an extended dream vacation!
He checks in regurlary on facebook...you should see the pics he's posting (he'll post 'em here when he gets time)

After a month of very little exercise I decided to hit the walk through archery range yesterday. About a mile long loop with various targets to shoot at along the way. Woke this moring to stiffness and soreness in both calves and the left ankle. Loosens up when I walk around, but they sure get stiff after sitting a while. My own fault for being too dang lazy lately!!!

Received an official looking "Final Notice" letter in the mail yesterday from some company called "American". Final Notice was the first thing that made me skeptical. Opened it up and it looks like a check for $1,198, #2 on the skepticism list.
Back og the checky looking thing says "This is not a check", #3.
No return adress, ujst a phone number to call to claim prize, #4 alarm bell goes off.
Obvious some low-life scumbag that is too lazy to get of his/her fat ass and get a real job. I'm sure they are just trying to get phone numbers to sell to others.
This king of crap ujst irritates me. I just filled out a US Postal Service fraud report and am going to mail it in later. I'm sure it won't result in much, but it's the principle of the thing.

I used to walk for at least an hour a day after work up until about a month ago, then I got lazy and broke the habit. Getting things ready and packed for a short vacation at the end of the week so I am just trying to get leg muscles stretched out and ready to go for next week when the exercise program starts over!!! Need to shed 30 pounds before the next Doctor appt. in a little over 2 months.

Alright, in keeping with the exercise thing...3 months ago the wife got a tread climber and I decided to use it. First, on to the scales, 199lbs, crep. I'm on the thing for 20 min. a day for 4 days, drop down to 192lbs, yay. Off to camp and come back, 199lbs, crep, crep ,crep. 4 more days of exercise, 192lbs. This trend continues to this very day.

I'm not an exercise addict by any means, but I always feel better in myself, less grumpy and stressed after a good long walk with the dogs.
As for weight yoyo's.... count me into that cycle too

Well that explains why I'm more ornery than normal lately! I too notice a difference when I exercise regularly. I have a hard time exercising indoors, I get bored with it. I have to get outside and walk in the park or woods. Going to find a tall hill to climb up and down, that really gets the heart pumping.

The last time I thought about walking down the trail beside my house, about 200ft. away, a sow grizzly and 2 cubs popped up. Nope, nope nope, indoor walking for me.
