I'll be gone for awhile......
Original Message Jan 20, 2005 10:24 am

Hey guys..........

I thought I'd post this, because of all the caring people who notice when one of the regulars "disappear" for awhile.

I'll be gone until next month.......you all get a well deserved break from me........

I'm leaving tomorrow flying to Houston, leaving from Galviston, taking my wife of 25 years

on a nice long Carribean cruise.

Before anyone says that I shouldn't have posted this on the internet, my son will be home to watch the house, etc. He is a hunter and loves his guns....burglars take note,hint, hint.

He will also hopefully have some good practice using the new Ariens while we are sunning, etc, all over Mexico and the Carribean. I'll be irked if he gets some nice big storms and gets to put the new baby through a nice workout without me..........but I guess you can't have it both ways.

See you around the first of Feb........!

Have a great trip Frank! Trust me, you deserve the break! I hope that you and your wife have a wonderful time.

Yes, please do take down those hours. If it was me, I would have been running the machine (playing around with it) even if there were no snow lol.

May you have enough happiness to make you sweet,
enough trials to make you strong,
enough sorrow to keep you human and
enough hope to make you happy.

Enjoy your vacation with the Mrs! Forget about everything except soaking up some sun, enjoying each other's company and enjoying all the sights!

See you when you get back!

Enjoy Frank and thanks for letting us know! Man I envy you.

I let the folks here know when I go out of town now for the last two years since I left for 5 days on a trip to Canada and I expected internet cafe's up there and found none where we went and I worried everyone lol....

The house and all our junk has always been fine when we get home lol....

Have a great time!!!

Way to go Frank. I know you are going because your wife needs to get away in the winter, but you will enjoy the trip alot also. The biggest thing i notice is how long the days are down there compared to here.

Besides the trip, a happy wife is not usually a bad thing. Have a safe trip Frank.

When you get back post some pics of your hair in cornrows.
