Good morning!!!!

[buckeyefarmer]

Tonight’s state is Florida.
Who from the US hasn’t been there?
First went in HS for our Sr class trip. Went to Disney, Busch garden, Daytona beach. My Great aunt and uncle lived in Daytona then, they gave me a tour of the speedway and ponce inlet light house.
On one trip was in Orlando and saw a space shuttle go up.
I went there a few times for work also, and we took the kids to Disney in 2005. Don’t ever go at spring break.
We stayed at one of the disney hotels, where this pic of the boys was taken

Went to a bush race at the Daytona speedway when I lived in Orlando.

We were tailgating across the street behind the 711. Kept hearing engines rev then click click click click in fast succession.

I walked over and popped my head over the privacy fence. They had a go-cart drag strip set up at the arcade

Well needless to say, our drunk butts had to go into the arcade and run the track before the race

They were running propane powered 350's in those go-carts. The click click click we were hearing was the braking system set up on the end of the track.

Those babies were fast

Have a safe trip mostly.

Dads power still out, but his wood stove is going. One of the guys who hunts there was there today, he said power lines are down up the road from dad’s. At least the road was open

BEF our family tree was completed by a relative but stops in 80s. We have interesting horse thief types, One very successful, one general in civil War for one day, wife’s great great grandfather was Stonewall Jackson other side German grand parents did not speak good English. Our son is the end of the line

Well I did something stupid tonight. I went to cover a plant in the backyard that I uncovered today and I forgot about the ice still on the patio.
I fell and my new knee was stretch to beyond Egore pain but in a sideways direction. My yell alerted Whipper who alerted my wife that something outside was not right and my wife calmly helped me back into the house. I'm Icing the knee now still shaking. I hope it does not swell up too bad and I didn't mess anything up . . . arrrg.

Hope no damage, Don. Sorry for the discomfort and pain.

Buppies, there’s one wreath in my family tree.
