Please Excuse Me

I haven't posted anything since May 25th. I keep getting up, or perhaps more properly getting awake, and meaning to write something and for one reason or another something always gets in the way. Tomorrow is a Family Reunion which was concieved as my going away party last April with perhaps one hundred and fifty family and friends attending. The idea was that I would have the opportunity to drink beer at my own wake without scaring people off with my impending death. Since April I am almost seven months into my alloted year, plus or minus two months, given in February. Well, I now expect to exceed that allotment so I may have to give the party next summer. If you can make the party I will be really pleased to see you. If you can't keep trying this site and I'll get you caught up by Labor Day. Meanwhile I have posted an entry that my daughter Barbara wrote for me to post.
