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

It has been a while. I must be slipping. I drove up to Rochester and back twice to ferry my Mom. Generally, the driving was terrible. I saw a few nasty accidents and I forgot to take photos. I am not sure what I was thinking. I had my camera. No excuses. I ran into my old friend Dave Schnsing at Wegmans and went out to visit his new farm in Macedon. They bought Maiers Mud Acres farm and we have software engineer turned farmer. They have apples, bakery, a road stand market and some nice fields. It looked like a lot of fun. It is definately something to keep your brain occupied. http://www.maiersmudacres.com/ Thanksgiving was quiet, nice and quiet. My flying occupies quite a bit of my thinking. It is such a positive activity. It is incredible to see the changes in myself. I see why people say, "it is the most fun you can have with your clothes on."
