    Apparently my wife's car didn't want to today either. They had a 2 hr late start today, she called and I ended up having to leave work for a bit to drive them to school. The 4 yr old battery gave up the ghost in this cold weather. Hopefully I can swap it out tonight faster than my fingers take to go numb haha.

    Back from a short trip to Lincoln. I didn’t want to post about it till it was over. Ya know how us men and our emotions can be.

    My Grandfather passed away last Tuesday at the amazing age of 94. He was a great man who served his country for 27years in the Navy.

    Thankfully I was able to fly up the other week and visit him right after he was placed on hospice care.

    If ya feel like it, you can check out his interview for the Veterans Project. It’s a fairly long audio recording about half way down the page.
