    Wife did the hands and knees work. She has a garden kneeler. My Doc does not want me kneeling for rhe next 10 months. Wife did a great job removing any growth in the space between the pavers.

    I hope it went well for you. I wish research would find a cure for Parkinson. My cousins husband donated his body to research for Parkinsons.

    Hey I resemble this sign.

    Good morning. The paver walkway looks almost new again.

    Today I have a crew on site building a foundation for a small 6X5 shed and assembling the shed on the foundation. Shed is small on purpose. I need to call my plumbing service today to replace a toilet.

    Pics of finished walkway.

    I'm very happy with the VA and their Doctor's in treating my Parkinson’s . They're really helping Veterans with this disease now , The doctor that I saw yesterday mentioned that !!!!

    It likes to be loose, not taught, as the zippers don't like to operate when tight...had to replace one that gave up.

    Otherwise, it's a great setup. Once up, most of the stuff in the bed of the truck gets moved to the tent. My sleeping platform and fridge stay in, along with that which I need for the day's exploring. The 'boot' detaches in minutes, and away I go.

    If it rains, It's big enough to cook and set up a chair and table in.

    edit: If it were more than just me, it might be a bit claustrophobic .

    Thanks !!!

    Since the Pact Act was signed into law 3 years ago this has helped Many Veterans suffering from chemical exposure while on Active Duty . Also locations were the Veteran may have been assigned to have presumptive conditions that the Veteran can recieve health care

    While I was active Duty in the Marines I was exposed to Aircraft cleaning solvent which was TCE and PCE solvents which in Today's world is a very hazardous chemical . I was also exposed to Burn pits that the Base crash crews trained in and the chemicals used in these pits was everything from Jet Fuel , Hydraulic fluid and anything else that was flammable

    The two Hangars my squadron was located in also was know to have had Agent orange stored there
