In all fairness to the other drivers, Lou said a lot seemed to be from out f town and didn't know they needed to stay off the sidewalks. :laugh:

Wow! Thanks for the kind words Lefty. Not too sure Mike liked my driving though! He said he wasn't expecting that 4-wheel drift in the center of twon on Broad though! :laugh:

I thought about something later too. You could take a 10' break and make a 4' and 6' that would also be light and able to do many things. Smaller breaks handle heavier metal easily too. I did forget to tell you one thing I tie a rope tot he front of my small ones, and stand on it, of in a foot-loop so it stay stable and doesn't lift when using it.

Be careful with those sauces. The Ginger Peach is great on fish, chicken and ice cream. :)

Frank, here is my eulogy. LOL

It was a pleasure to spend time with Frank and LouAnn. They showed us around Richmond. We also got to see a lot of Franks work and his shop.

It is always an honor to be in another man's shop. A different time and we could have spent a week there and learned from a Master Craftsman. We only got one lesson. It was bueatiful to watch Frank pick up a piece of tin and quickly make two panels and show us how to form a double lock standing seam. He had Mike doing it in a matter of minutes.

I found that Frank like myself is most at peace when on a roof. It is rare to find people who find peace sitting in an oven.LOL The rest of the world does not exist for us, when we are up on a roof practicing our craft.

I can honestly tell you that Frank is the only person I have met with a very bad heart, that I would let drive me around. I laughed to myself getting in the car that his heart could give out at anytime. I was at total peace with it. I knew that Frank is going to be alright. I never gave it another thought till the ride home.

I would like to thank Vickie for making all this possible. Also would like to thank Frank and LouAnn for showing us around and the great stories and conversation. It is always great to be with Mike.

Here is a couple of pictures of us.

Some wonderful visitors showed up from out of town yesterday and treated the wife and I to a wonderful Wake which was enjoyed by all. Well, I enjoyed it! :) Most people aren't lucky enough to meet such outstanding folk, nor have such a nice time. Thank you Mike and Lefty! I just they had a good time. I'm not much of a host and to be honest, I feel lost when off the roof.

Does anyone in here know how to reach Tinner's bride to check up on him?

Hah. You'll be fine, my Dad got an "engine tuneup" about 5-6 years ago. Good as new. Quadruple bypass.

Those docs are awesome these days. Also, you being a little more comfortable in the buff can't hurt anything!

Well, I went to preadmissions yesterday and any chance of this being optional went out the window when they looked at the EKG. When I asked what the pacemaker comment, which was a new thing, kicked out by the machine meant, the Doc said my heart must be getting mixed signals. When I mentioned a recent 'event' in the middle of the night, they said time was nearly up and I should have come to the ER and to come in if it happens again and doesn't kill me before I get there. :)

I asked for 20 Viagra pills to help me pass the next week and they refused. Lou said that if they did, I was on my own! :laugh:

Then I will just have to send you another one!

I better leave her alone for awhile! She just broke my RCS coffee mug. :ohmy: :(

Somebody else step up and bug her for awhile. :laugh:

I wouldn't fret Vickie. I talked to Frank. I don't think he's really sick. He's just trying to keep LouAnn on her toes.

;)

Sorry Tinner: We got hit by a hacker, we are trying to clean it up now.

tinner666

Thanks for the well wishes. Did I mention they had lots of plans to fall back on?? :laugh: They left out the verbal one the Doc quoted me, "At this point, we just throw up our hands and say 'Oh Well!'" :laugh:

Well! Suddenly, I can't add a pic, it just goes to a URL now. My RCS albums with no relationship to the pic. I'll put it on FB with my other post there.

Here's the FB link. Since it's public, you should be able to read it without being a member.
