Man! For a retired old man I've been busier than a one legged man in an asss kicking contest! Some of it has been fun busy like going fishing about every other day for the last three weeks cause the nephew cam in from TX...and working in the garden. So busy, I don't think I've sat down in front of the computer to give serious thought to a trade in a month!

Last Thursday, I was laying in bed at about 5 am listening to a thunderstorm. I was taken by the strange sound of the thunder as it seemed to originate very near the house and travel up and away instead of the standard issue rolling in and going on thunder clap. About 6:30 I got up and went outside to piddle with something and noticed a smell of smoke. It struck me odd because it smelled like a "house on fire" fire...a unique smell that once encountered is not forgotten. I dismissed it for a moment and then it hit me again. I looked towards the neighbors house. The one I mow for the people who own it but live in Florida. The I saw a cloud...my mind had trouble processing it. Is that a tornado trying to form up? No...that's fricken smoke. I holler to the woman...house is on fire and jumped into the truck to get there. This is what was left when the fire department left...more or less. Two stories of 75 year old house in a smoldering heap in the basement.

Gone...

Been busy!
