One more wakeup and your Northeast tour will be complete and a success....And everyone had a blast through personal encounters and posts of the whole thing in real time....I have to make the time to finish posting pictures...Playing catch-up in many different arenas here...
There is a lot more of my Blue boat in the back of my van after yesterday !!!!!
Have a great last leg of your journey, hugs for your Wife and I'll bet your Mom is waiting patiently for your return!!!!! Eyes everywhere Brother.

As I have grown older, this has been one of the things I strive to do. B it family or total stranger. Simply starting a conversation looking someone in the eye and telling them you wish them a great day. Simple random acts of kindness. Happy Red Friday and safe travels Col. I am not getting out of work until late- I will not be able to make Omaha at a reasonable hour.
