  • CHOO CHOO CHARLIE

    Hey Now! I turned 45 yesterday, it's all down hill from here I guess.

    My garden didn't fare too well this year, all except my cucumbers which averaged 18" long!

    Summer 08 002

    Shaun holding the evidence. The tomotoes (R) and peppers (L) leave much to be desired, I don't think they got enough water.

    We went to the 4-H fair on Thursday, kinda did a quick walk through as Joel Colin needed to be fed on or near schedule. I like sheep and goats and if I hit the lottery I will by some land and raise them after I get some training of course and a maid! Here are some pics from the fair:

    Asher (center) was lost for a brief moment, it was long enough to panic Mom and Dad!

    Summer 08 004

    Here is the latest pic of Joel Colin, he is wearing some kind of outfit with baseball stuff on it, but to me he looks like Choo Choo Charlie. I think the reference is from the Good and Plenty Candy commercial, correct me if I'm wrong. Choo Choo Charlie was an engineer....... so the jingle went.

    My wife Adele hiding behind him.

    Oh, I bought a motorcycle! A used one, almost brand new, 1700 miles on it, I found on Craigs list, still under warranty till April 2010! I will get some pics up soon. Right now I am going to a 3 day saftey course I signed up for, 250 bucks for the course, and if you pass you don't have to take a road test for your liscence! It started Friday night, I was there today and will be there tomorrow. This is the first time in MANY,MANY years I will miss church for something, well, lets just call it secular. Although as strange as it may seem, I did baptize my bike.

    I read that Moses sprinkled all the old testament utensils with blood. If those things can be set apart so can my bike under the new testament, since I am His witness, and the bike must carry me around, enough said, no I'm not crazy.

       Well I got to go to bed, see ya soon.............

    I've been busy working like 12 hours a day, starting real early so when I get home I don't feel like blogging. This is a nice lunch spot I found in Staten Island, it gives a view of N.Y.C., lots of ships in the waters.

    Land of make believe 012 

    This isn't one of the ships, Lol. We went to land of make believe for a birthday party and no sooner did our feet hit the water, when they closed the water park for the day, it was preseason hours, we didn't know.

    John Duddy: “I made a point that I don’t have to be brave all of the time. Jut cause I can take a punch doesn’t mean I have to. I had trouble convincing my self. I proved that I can move my head a lot more. I caught him with some beautiful shots and I thought that he was ready to go, but Charlie has a great chin. I have big plans and I’m still undefeated. I used my jab a lot tonight. I’m hoping to get a shot at a world title.”
