yea, I think it's time for me to go.  It's not even 10:00 and already my eyes are bugging out of the sockets.  I did however get some painting done on my Corsair pit.  I'll post pics when it's almost done.  Later guys.

Thanks Aaron.  I will have to have Frank email me the picture.  He is the only person that I have met in person from this forum.  I have talked to Darren, Nam and Frank on the phone.  We have all talked about some day all getting together sometime.

 I fixed it. I tried to make folders as I read by name of our pics so we could preserve them for future celebrations.

 Train driving time for me you all hold down the fort!

 No I wasn't being cynical Roy. I probably the most open minded ex-military guy there is on that subject in reality. I was more interested in the region, should have been more clear? Is it Canadian Rum?  One thing about this GB is it has expanded my knowledge of Rums beyond barcardi.

Gee Frank, your such a swell guy!

Here's one of me and the kids summer before last on the west coast of Vancouver Island.  

Took lots of pics this last summer but I don't seem to be in very many of them.

OK, I'll start...

Here's a recent pic of Haligan and I, taken a few weeks back while on vacation in Door County, WI.  We just returned from a sunset flight over the penninsula, where we were able to get some great photos of the shore, the sunset, and some sunken schooners.

I would post the Optivisor pics again, but it scares Dave too much. Shock [:O]

If you guys go back to some of the early FAA posts we all posted pictures of ourselves, perhaps we should do that again?  Just an idea.

Dee are you going to join our build? 

I think that would be an awesome idea! I just hope I have something decent I could share of myself.

Oh, and Aaron? If you wanna include another one of your better half in that skirt, then that is perfectly ok by me!Big Smile [:D]
