Well, my last Post was in March and we are heading into almost June. Life is good, Cold bitter Old Man Winter has left, We looked out at bare trees, and rain and suddenly there are leaves on the trees, grass is green and ready to be mowed,
summer is coming.
.It has been rather sad here, I had to go Sunday and Play and sing at the Funeral for my 90 year old 1st Cousin Lois, then On Wednesday I had to do the Funeral Service for my 1st Cousin Wayne Whitford, Wayne was a Korean War Veteran, I did the Eulogy and Prayers and sand and played 2 songs and then we did the Military Service for him with help from the Gouverneur VFW ! .
.
We went and got the Camper and brought it home, we drained the Antifreeze out of the water lines, charged the battery and filled the Propane Tanks and Water Tanks !
.
.
Anna Mae hooking up the Camper to tow it
back to the Complex..
.
For excitement I took my savings and I purchased a LOAR Mv-600 Mandolin, I now have Fender and Taylor 6 string Guitar, a Morgan Stanley Dobro, and Loar Mandolin. Now if I could only Sing !!!!
.
.
Mark Thomas and I playing at the
Nursing Home to about 15 residents
who really enjoy our bi-weekly visits!

Well, hoping I stay Healthy, Gotta finish and go read "The SHIPSLOG" and see
what Jack is doing !!

Don't Forget, Remember the Vet !

WE are fortunate not having to winterize for extreme temps, but I can remember how nice spring looked, when getting our tents and popups ready to head for the mountains.
so sorry to hear of the losses, life goes on and the obits keep coming. One day it will be us, but until then 'my heart will sing'. Of course I cannot sing,. but my heart do!
I had a great surprise lately. A shipmate from 50 years ago contacted me. He was a good kid, but I never expected him to be called 'FAther'. Looking forward to seeing him in Sept. when we get back to /Deltona. That is where he lives! We also have a little bungalo there.
Anyway great to see the post and see Anna Mae!
PS: I know the seniors love to hear you guys pick and sing....
