    I do not want to bum ya out...but I must share.

    Just got word that the oldest shooter in our group is in the hosp. on a morphine drip. Scheduled for sx tomorrow to remove a large stomach and lung tumor.
    Barring some miracle, I know how this goes.
    Now the positive...
    I've shot with this guy for close to 5 years. He's a crusty ol cuss. Straps his bow on his Harley sideways and goes. I've seen him get mad and throw his bow and I've seen him laugh so hard he about pees himself. He's 83 and was out with all of us last Sunday, flinging arrows. He lost the "half-way hotdog shot" and had to buy his nemisis a hotdog for brunch.
    The good times I will remember.

    The point here:...
    Our next breath is not promised.
    Tell the ones you care for, you are glad to see them. And be sincere when you say it...it may be your last chance.

    You will be glad you did.
    You will be sorry you did not.

    Our AC (heat pump) doesn't seem to add to much to our bill. That thing was running solid last week. We will see!
