A good morning to you too. Comments on yesterday: yep, mostly happy.
Here's a smile for you: I finally finished my plumbing job for the bathroom. Almost all overhead in a short, about 5'6", stone basement. I have plenty of bruises to show for it. It was a comedy, bang my forehead, turn and bang the top of my head, swear turn and hit my forehead on the damn hundred plus year old beam again. Kind of pinballing. I thought I had it made when I came upstairs to sweat the pipes in the wall opening I cut. Everything went great until I looked and I had burned a big mark in the tub surround with the torch. Had to pull the torch out of the hole to get my hand in with the solder. Guess I held it too far away. New tub surround being picked up today and more work for me. I'm going to wash and mess around with the truck today.

HI Michigan chapter. I feel like I don't belong. holy crap have I been busy. Miss you guys.
Still getting settled down here, sold the Jeep, moving boxes, working 6 days a week, visiting the girlfriend when I can, insurance class this weekend (should be long and boring days), then test out next week. So I'll be a licensed insrunce dude, working through the RV dealership.
I think that about sums it up. Hoping on going hunting in a couple weeks, hard to beleive this is the first year in the last 10 or so that I haven't bow hunted. I'll be going nuts if I miss any part of gun season, I know I won't make opening day.
Take care all. Pat, Mark, and whoever wants we need to get out one of these saturdays and toss a couple back. Be good to hang out with you guys and catch up. I'll have to make sure the girl is over this way if/when we do get together.

No hunting this morning but I'm headed to camp at noon until about 9pm Sunday and then it's back to working on the dreaded bath. Hey Toyman I hope you get to enjoy at least some of the rifle season. I've missed whole seasons in the past. At least your priorities are on.
