April 24, 2010
Sorry, no pictures, OK, maybe one
On the road every night since last Monday, didn't get home Friday night thanks to the hi jinks of the always innovative US Airways. That made for a time compressed Saturday involving a flight, office work, fixing Jackson's truck, unpacking/repacking, an out of town wedding, Jackson's prom, and a drive up to Thornton, VA. Where is that you ask? It is the site of the Stonewall Jackson Shrine off I-95; remember it now don't you? As I arrived last night the local gendarmes were looking for someone at the crossroad off I-95. I checked in and then went for a sandwich, and observed a little racial profiling; glad I didn't match the deception.
I should mention I am not complaining about the travel; I am happy to have the opportunities, and that people want me to be somewhere! But, I must admit I am ready for a few days off; planning to take a week in May
On to Arlington VA this morning for the spring AHRI meetings, working in a couple of distributor calls, then home late Tuesday night, to Charlotte Wednesday night for a little customer work at the PGA event. I'll be able to take Jackson, sorry I missed his prom his prom last night, to celebrate his 19th birthday. Speaking of which, granddaughter # 1 should be making he formal debut any day now.....................
More upbeat news; Pop had another good week.
That's it, next week probably some pictures of Female Riley Name TBA; I'll leave you with one shot of Jackson, who learned to tie a bow tie for his FBLA in Raleigh

That should come in handy at Hampden-Sydney next year.

Dueling Banjos No, the odd looking young man did not play the banjo in the movie, here is how the movie-magic people did it: Fake sleeves !!...
