I do like the outdoors and nature. I dont like the naive view. I like the real thing. Sometimes it can be scary and sometimes it hurts. I still like nature. I like wilderness. Camping in North Georgia is quite nice. There is a alot going on as usual, at work and at home. I think I am going to sell the humvee. I dont need 5 cars. I have some more work to do to it, but after I get what I have planned done. Its gonna hit the road. It will still take me awhile with my current level of productivity and the number of projects I have in flight.

DJ got me a trumpet for my birthday. My lips are bruised now, but wouldn't you know it, I haven't played a trumpet in 30 some-odd years and I pretty much picked it up and played a bit of a tune. Just don't ask we what I had for dinner the other night. I injured my foot. I am hobbling around at the computer with a trumpet. I seem to have Achilles tendonitis. It is quite painful and if I don't stay off it it can be quite a debilitation. I need to run more. Not just right now, however. Blah blah blah
