    Spending the last 25 years tromping the countryside with him. Took him out to look for deer antlers when he was 6 years old. We both really enjoy it. Had a lot of good times together.

    Minnesota nice neighbors. Spent a good amount of time in the rant thread about all of the snow this year/last few days. I had drifts to my chest that I just finished digging out a small section of our sidewalk. Our friend shows up with his enclosed blower and does the entire driveway. Awesome! Goes to the surrounding houses around us and does their driveways. Snowplow comes through and creates a giant pile at the end of all our driveways. Neighbor gets his blower and does ours/surrounding 5 houses.

    Son just brought his new red brindle with white socks boxer pup to meet AJ. What an adorable litte guy, Asher. Funny watching A.J. try to play with him. A.J. being 10 times his size. With Asher running to "grams" for help.
    Found out sons been home sick a couple of days this week. Kids in school (eye roll)

    Real science is never settled, it is just accepted until better research or exploration comes along. Real science accepts this reality with humility. Only the arrogant fool thinks he has all the answers or that the issued is solved beyond new learning.

    Except gravity, Newton was spot on with that one.

    It's amazing when you feel crudy for several days then suddenly it breaks. I'm still stuffy and tired, think that's more from not being active, but that nasty ill feeling is just gone. Phewwww!

    University of Virginia just published a study about treating one's gut biome to reduce the swelling associated with Multiple Sclerosis. Also included swelling associated with the blood brain barrier which implicates a possible treatment for my son. This is big time news for anyone living with an autoimmune disorder.

    Traffic was light this morning, pulled at my usual ramp level and there was a prime spot with a luggage cart sitting right by it, made getting my big field bag to check in a breeze. Then whisked right thru security then my flight is flying out of the first gate in the C concourse. Everything lined up beautifully. Will enjoy my second preflight drink when we sit in deicing.

    Saw a news story and seems like a good winter activity ice bowling. No pins you drill holes in the ice and put the ball into the holes for points. Seems like a drinking manditory activity.
