I plan to come in Friday with my younger daughter Donelle, her two children and her current beau and his two. I will have to leave to go to Albuquerque on Saturday around noon and will return late that night or early on Sunday, depending on how things go up there. I trust that you will all see that they are included in my absence.

I am looking forward to seeing everyone again and hate like hell to miss the afternoon shooting. If anyone thinks that retirement means that you no longer have obligations and scheduling conflicts, let me be the first to disabuse you of that notion. Can't wait to see you all again!

Some days it takes most of the day for me to do practically nothing...
