Busy day aroudn the house. Diane is on a mission to get her whole garden in befor3 we head out for Gabes graduation. We dug, mulched, mowed, weed wacked and  fertalized, .. all under Diane”s expert gardeners eye

one of the main accomplishments was to find the perfect O-ring to keep our mower gas cap from falling off.. we’d been using rubber bands.. but they quickly fall apart when exposed to gasoline.. I  found the perfect replacement neopring oring at the hardware store..   It was nice to celibrate a small victory like that 

Speakig of Rings.. I had an unexpected and welcome call from my old freind John S.. I should now say .. Dr. John S. He finished his PhD at Columbia last year.. john and I did many projects together.. the pumpkin king, the eel, stampo..   It had been more than a year that we had talked.. 

He’s got a startup now based on his PhD research.. and has a great long tiem girlfreind..  he talked about coming up for a visit soemtime this summer. 

So nice to be back in touch !
