Hello Everyone,

Sorry to hear about all your troubles with the weather Lee & Terri, but remember, Spring is right around the corner. I see by your pics that you took my advice about playing Hooky from work and went out and had some fun and I'll bet you'll never forget it. It's always fun to go out and do something enjoyable and know everyone else is hard at work, kind of like being in school and skipping classes, ahem, although I never knew what that was like, but now as an adult somewhat regret doing that. I've got to share this story, it's kind of funny and it made me feel ancient but a few days after Xmas I went to visit my neighbor who has 6 six kids, 3 boys, 3 girls (The Brady Bunch), the youngest is a girl and she's 5, going on 40, anyway, she was showing me all that Santa had brought her, I was explaining to her how all the toys had really changed from my time and one of her toys sort of reminded me of Spirograph, she looked up at me and asked, what's that, that's when I felt old, well, I guess I took it a little further than I should have, I went on E-Bay and found a spirograph and bought one and the next time she came to visit me, I brought it out, she had a blast and she knew it was a toy none of her friends had, or for that matter one that she has ever seen before, so whenever she comes over our house, she always asks for it and sits for a lengthy time playing w/it. She's always asking me to bring it to her house, but w/six kids, she'd never get to play w/it again. I'll tell you what, it really brought back the memories and it was still a lot of fun too and I lucked out as the person selling it on E-Bay misspelled the name so I was able to get a cheap price for a complete set, so the next time you explain a toy to a child and they don't understand, go to E-Bay and buy one and show them how it works. I also received a long e-mail from someone but just to take a small portion from it, it said, you should always do what you wanted to do now and not put it off until later or next year, because later or next year, you'll always be older or one year older doing what you wanted to do at the present time. Hey Lee. how about you and Terri build a snowman (since you have so much snow), and take a picture and put it on our website, I'd do it here, but the weather is going to be 61 degrees tomorrow and there's no snow left in Pringle.
