John, I couldn't agree with you more about Bob. We call him the cheerleader around here. Bob, have a great trip.

Hey....wait a minute...I thought that Yukon, the great white wolf would take your head off. He looks more like....."Scratch my belly and I'll show you where the good stuff is hidden"!

Too bad I didn't stop by. But I went to see childhood best friend in Kittanning Care Center. It don't look like he will be with us much longer. Didn't know he was sick. His sister ran into my wife yesterday and begged I go see him before it was to late.

Well made it back safe and sound, with a slightly customized rear bumper/quarter panel. I want to thank you John, for inviting me into your lovely home. It was truly a pleasure meeting you and your lovely wife. Yukon is a great dog? Wolf?, ah huge animal! LOL. He's a great dog and a VERY good watch dog. Didn't take him long to warm up to me once I rubbed his ears though. ;)

I'm VERY sorry I couldn't stop back by on the way back but my second cousin is doing better but he is on dialysis. Not sure what's going to happen now. They're still waiting on the test results before they diagnose anything. I also did make it back in time to se my daughter for a while before she had to head back up to college. I'm hoping we can come back by that way again and I'll bring Kim this time so you can meet her and we can meet Ed and your mom.

Robert, very sorry to hear about your best friend, would have liked to meet you too but sick best friends have priority by far!

Bob
