Maybe I'll learn one day.

Well... I have spent the last 15 minutes trying to figure out how to log back into this blog to enter another message. I finally figured it out, but now the problem is that the wonderful words of wisdom I had have now escaped me. I spent the weekend at Gulf Shores at my sister's condo. My niece and her 2 little girls and one of their friends all came down. I think they had a blast. I know though that it takes more and more to impress young kids nowadays. When I was growing up, I considered myself very lucky. We had a beach house on the Lagoon. I spent nearly every summer down there from the day school let out until the day school would start. We never had a TV or a telephone there, didn't matter, there was always so much to do that TV was the farthest thing from my mind. About the only real luxury we had was a boat with a motor big enough to pull skis but I think I would have still had plenty to do even without that. Learning to fish (and clean them), catch crabs and shrimp, pick up soft-shell crabs in front of the house, drive a boat, water ski, even playing bridge with my mom and her bridge friends on rainy days were all skills I acquired early and have stayed with me since (I was better at bridge then than I am now). However, being able to spend the weekend with all of them was a lot of fun and gave me an opportunity to get more closely acquainted with some relatives that I don't get to see very often.

I'm not much at Blogging, but I'm gonna give it a try and see if anybody is interested in anything I might have to say. The subject matter will be mostly car related but not necessarily limited to that. I also have lots of other hobbies that suck up money. Scuba Diving, Golf, Photography, and of course my business, Video Production. If you find this terribly boring, then I would suggest that you stop reading it. :-) Kinda how I feel about people that complain about what is on TV nowadays.
