Default New Day, New Year

You know when you are up before daylight, and having that first cup of coffee, we do not watch the sunrise. Well this morning I was contemplating the new year and what it may hold, I noticed this bright orange light reflecting on the wall. Closer examination revealed a beautiful sunrise fitting for a new year full of hope and anticipation. It is not the best set of photo;s but it was special to me anyway Gary

Beautiful sunrise Gary. God gives us a treat every day. All we need to do is open our eyes. It's what we do with it that makes it special.
Dave, if you will recall, I had been out of the hospital only about 2 weeks, and I had just lost 18-20 pounds. Before getting sick, I was strong as an ox, and as big as one too. Almost like Dean. Well, no, that's an exaggeration, but still a lot healthier than I would be for the next few months.
You're right; just a year ago. You were ever so welcoming, and promptly introduced me to Dean and Larry. I had no idea you would become such a pain in my butt, That Larry would eventually loose his memory of people's names, and Dean would become such a ball of fire. Who would have guessed it? He was as exciting as an overworked funeral director. I think meeting the three of you all on the same day was just below my critical mass level, and had George been there too, it would have been well beyond the tipping point. On a lighter note though, you guys do make the organization, and my input is about as useful as a two lane road in a one horse town. I still tell people how you went out of your way to bring me a cup of coffee. Considering how fast you drive, I still can't figure why the coffee was cold. Really, did you buy it in Stratford, the day before?

Not to worry Egger...The coffee was cold because you wouldn't stop talking and drink it.. I'm sure your buddy George will chime in here when he get's back from the farm...

OK I'm just seeing this on-line love fest as I celebrated the arrival of 2013 on Nauset beach on the Cape and had no lap top access for 2 days.

Edgar we are fortunate to know you.
