From: Where ever my boots come off.
My three favorite things in this world have to be, in no particular order;
1. Hearing my son say "Hi daddy" when I get home from work.
2. Watching my son when he sleeps.
3. Getting to see my sons "dance of joy" when I also get home from work.

Is it obvious that I'm totally into my boy? My wife found out that she ranks a very distant second once my boy was born.

Dennis, why do you need a howitzer on Roger's Pass?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

They are used by employees to create a controlled avalanche before they become very large & do damage or block off the railway tracks or the highway.

THey were blasting a few near tunnel 4 about 15 years ago while I was parked for a rest.
That was quite cool to watch them do it.

How old is your son ?

I was with FTE user BrentS this weekend.

Brent & Joanne have a wonderful little boy that is the idol of Dad's Eye as well.

Micheal is 2 & has his own 79 P/U.
