    Hi everyone, I'm still around

    I'm back from Hawaii. It was a great trip. I'm now having to care for my Dad after a major Spinal opperation. I'll be back to turning and wood working in a month or so. I'll be in on and off when I can. I do have some great pics to post and I will as soon as possible. I'll be back asap.

    Bill - glad to see you back! I wish your Dad a speedy and full recovery! Back surgery is no fun but once healed it is always worth it! Looking forward to the pictures!

    Thanks guys, you're a great bunch of friends. My Dads had A real tough time of it. He's got more titanium than most race cars. 2 Weeks after the first opperation they had to go back in because of an infection called MRSA. It really took him down. He's doing much better now but it'll still be a slow road to recovery. This is the strongest man alive in my book. At 81 he's kicking this thing in the butt. Thanks again for the prayers. Trust me, they work. They really do.

    Never put off until tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.

    Bernie, I'm very sorry for your loss. We almost lost mine when they had to go back in. I'm terrified of that day. Like you, my dad is my best friend too. Thanks for your prayers.
