He has sure grown up Ryan. Been a while since I've been on here. Have not had a chance to catch up. Only have about 25 pages to go.
I am out of order until further notice. My "stupid people" filter needs cleaning and my "give a damn" batteries have run out.

Yeah, you don't look at this page for a few days and it's like you missed a few months.

Great pics Ryan! Best wishes to our internet fire hosts and good friends (Dave and Pam) as they celebrate Nathan's graduation today! Congratulations Nate!! Our oldest son graduated yesterday. What a proud and unexpectedly emotional moment that was. His Mom cried through the whole thing because...well...that's what Moms do. I was just standing there feeling proud of the fine young man he has become until he brought us each a rose and gave me the biggest, tightest, longest hug I have gotten since dropping him off for his first day of school. The wave of emotions that ran through me during that father/son hug is something I will never forget in all my life. He is going to school for Diesel Mechanics in the fall and already has an internship lined up at a JD dealership in which they will help pay for his schooling. He also received $1000 in scholarships so that will help with books and such. Don't mean to brag but I'm a pretty proud Papa today. Happy Memorial Day everybody! God bless our soldiers past and present!

I made it out fishing before work today for a lil bit. 5 jumbo crappies and 3 nice walleyes from 15"-19" came home with me. threw 3 or 4 back that were just under the 15" limit for the lake. also caught a 3lb largemouth that is still swimming. it was a beautiful morning on the water!

Nicely done!!!! Quick little trip like that sometimes are the best.
ND you piss out those stones yet?
Been thinking of all the pain you have been in , a whats worse scenario.
I have had the Gout,Bone Spurs, and Fractured ankles, wondering how that compares to the kidney stones.
