Good for him, and them for the vacations! Thanks for the update, as always!
Had a wonderful cell fone reunion convo with Phil (Semiretired) dis PM. He and his bride returned via da 'big pond' a couple of months ago after a six month annual PI 'mission'.
Da BIG news is dat he no longer vapes. Fate had da major hand in dat 'decision'. First day in country (PI) he forgot his one of three Provaris in a cab. Week and a half later, he dropped 'nother Provari dat was DOA after a 'drop' retrieval. Da last survivor must of gotten lonely and said no mo' a week or so later.
He said dat vaping equipment over dere is obscenely over priced, not countin' hard to locate! Ergo, he went cold PV! He only has dat ol' muscle memory as to reachin' for a vape. He's has had no nic withdrawal whatsoever!
Dis trip he and his bride got to take, not one, but two never before experienced 'vacations' while in country! Hope to have sum pics in a little while to post here.
So... welcome back, Semi and bride. Oh, and a happy 30th WA this past April!!! View attachment 820751 View attachment 820751 View attachment 820751

You remember those old Smok GBC and EBC tanks? I loved those. The new tanks (even the mtl ones) all seem to have those giant mouth pieces that's more like a fat 'ole cigar than a cigarette. A nice person recommended an innoken, but the mouth piece is giant. Can anyone recommend a tank that is more like the old GBC tanks and their little mouth pieces? Thank you!!!
I feel the same about those fat tips. There may be an adapter available to let you fit a standard driptip to a device designed for the fat ones. If not, anyone with a lathe should be able to turn such an adapter from Delrin.

It's good to hear that they are well. Hope they share pics with us! Good for Semi for quitting, glad he had no withdrawals!

Oh no! He really needs a break. This is all so rough on him. I'm glad they got video for him. That is precious. He sounded like he was having a hard time in his last post. Prayers up indeed!Da Patrick's Trials and Tribulations Saga continues...
Several days ago he was reaching for his walker, lost his balance and garnered a hairline pelvic fracture. So off again to da rehab center. He'll be heading back 'home' tomorrow. Teased him again 'bout bubble wrap...
He's been so impressed with his granddaughters' help and attention. Guess they're treatin' ol' G'dad right! He does have his own room with remote controlled (almost) everything.
Ginny's ashes were interred in her family burial plot the other day. Of course Patrick missed that also. BUT, one of their GDs happened to video Ginny going to bed the night she passed. Ginny said "I love you!" to Pat; the best of last words!
Prayers out! Love, live, endure...
