Elliott Brack

I went to Elliot Brack's funeral yesterday. He was a friend. And he was quite a character. He was one of the first people I met outside of work when I moved to Georgia. He was sort of a variation of the main character of Tom Wolfe's "A Man In Full". I used to say that Elliott and I had a 50-50 relationship. He told me what to do and I did it. His 50% was telling me. My 50% was doing it. He was a fixture at my church and involved me in all sorts of things. Including organization of our "Civic Breakfast" where we invited leaders from the community for information and opinions of the community. It goes on and on. There were 260 people attending his funeral. He will be missed. https://www.crowellbrothers.com/obituaries/Elliott-Earl-Brack?obId=48440319

A lot got done this weekend. The firewood is in a lot better shape. The pile of roofing is finally buried. The spreader is on the tractor and a whole bunch more. I ran into this machine at the local restaurant. Rednecks feel the pinch on gas prices just like everybody else. This trike has tool boxes and clearance lights just like the pickup.
