And listening pleasure. Very nice music, much better than last night.
Iffy, you will enjoy a story I can tell you in the HO sometime. Remind me.
Seeing my sibs and my sister's inlaws made it all worthwhile. The bride and groom were beautiful, as well as the cathedral.
They had these, How to Launch a Sky Lantern but we didn't launch them, because it was too windy. The directions on the package were in very bad Chinglish. If you want me to give a sample, just ask. It is awful!!

You are the master of creative spelling. They are the masters of off-the wall semantics. Give me an example, and I will show you that you can't outdo them.

Sounds like it was a delightful evening, @3mg Meniere! Did you dance?
@2legsshrt, please wish Ginny a happy birthday and a year full of joy!

Nope. The only guy I would have danced with chose to dance with my sister. A better match, age-wise, LOL.
Glad y'all didn't launch em. Hate when folks send up balloons or other things. They don't think about when the things come down and animals eat them.They had these, How to Launch a Sky Lantern but we didn't launch them, because it was too windy.

that is soooooooooo kewl!Here's my seat.
Deb you are right. Animals do eat them. As a rehabber I got many birds through the years with these things lodged in their throat or strings wound around their legs. Another bad one is the plastic tops from 6 packs. You wouldn't believe how horribly tangled animals get in them. I always cut them totally apart before I toss them in the trash.
I was concerned about the fire hazard involved. Never knew that they were so frequently set aloft that they would be noted as a cause for animal injury.
You know it really was and I miss it still. Still have all kinds of railroad dreams, usually what I dream about. I guess when you spend 2/3 of your life doing something and the other 1/3 checking to see when you are going to get called or trying to get some sleep in the middle of the day one day middle of the night the next. Trying to make sure you are rested enough to pull a 12hr shift plus getting a 2hour call and trying to get showered while Ginny makes me some food to take and a few cups of coffee for my 1-1/2 hour drive at 2 am. I think the hardest was pulling a 12 hour shift not making it all the way to your terminal waiting for a ride and by the time you get there it's 16 hours and the worst was on the other side of the mountains then driving from Seattle to Arlington about 70min in the middle of the night about 2 hours in the day time. But it used to be a fun job and I enjoyed it. I wouldn't want to be there now, its no longer a fun job, the company pretty well screwed that up. Used to be seniority was everything now it makes no diff you all work the same. Everybody just counts their time. Oh well 36 years is enough fun.
