Well, we are still around and kicking,  Good Lord willing and the creek don't rise we will continue doing what we want.

First I want to thank Jimmy from http://jimsulliv3.blogspot.com/ for the TAC AWARD.  I must explain that what I do I do for others and not so much for me but I do get great enjoyment from being a part of a great bunch of guys and gals traveling to Hospitals, nursing homes, cafe's and other places.
