Hey Jeremy, you can still come back over anytime.

I was a scoutmaster in Phoenix for three years. We were a back-packing troop and often ran into snakes. Taught the boys to walk around them and keep on trucking. Often at night I would wonder what kept the things from trying to double bunk with us, as we slept out in the open on the ground. Finally convinced myself they didn't like us any better than we liked them. And the fact is I've never really had a problem. You see the snake or hear it, just avoid it. Don't get curious.

There are diamond backs in these parts, and of course throughout the South there are water moccasins. Watch out for those guys. They will actually come after you if you get too close -- the moccasins, I mean.

Much more dangerous than the rattler is the Coral Snake. If he gets a chance to nibble on you you're a gonner.

and now back to the weather . . .

I can report that the weather in Orlando and in Houston right now is fantastic. Around 80 and breezy, which makes for a great combination. Not sticky at all. Nights about 70.

Looks like I made the right move in '78 leaving Wisconsin and settling in South Carolina.

Mid 70's here in the Northwest today. We are getting ready for JB and Patti. Don't want it to cold for them.
Going to be out in the yard getting it pretty all weekend. Friends are going to be getting married back there this summer and we will have to be hosting the 2nd annual Northwest JB Forum Friends BBQ. Mike when are you heading north to go fishing?
Eveyone have a nice weekend.
