I know what you mean Sam, I'm afraid if I'm off the Forum for a day or two I'll miss something really important.
Kind of like being home sick from school for a week, then getting back to class and having NO idea what they're talking about! Remember THAT feeling?

I did NOT see the UPDATE and did not write.
Yes,
I ' lost ' five 5 aquaintances in April alone, and was sick with the flu for two weeks. Yuk.
I rode my 4-8-2 bike down to where I took the photo of CP 4104 ( Same digits, different order. ) in May 1969 ( they lifted the steel there in 1972 ) and left peanuts and black sunflower seeds for Mr. Squrrel, The Chipmunks and the Chickadees.
They love it and come out when I call them.
No bears yet, but, they are out.
Mosquitoes to follow, The National Bird.
I got caught short and had to stop in to the Old Folks Home to use their washroom. Many in there I know, and more gone I once knew.
Met several and we all had a nice chat and Remembered When.
The old guys remember Steam and K3 and Retainers EVERY TRIP.
Someone compared the Baby Boomers to a Watermelon moving thru a Python.
I ride my 4-8-2 Bike to funerals and drive around the parking lot, then chain same to the gas meter.
Expect to visit there very soon regarding others I know.
Thank You.
Say Hello to Mr. M.M. Please.
Flintlock76 Good news folks, if all has gone well Vince should be heading home today!

Ulrich I certainly wish him well.. he's in good care at the Royal.. He must be! He posted me a shot of what he had for dinner last night, and it looked a hell of a lot better than what I had last night!

You're very welcome NDG!
Miningman (Vince) is in the Royal University Hospital of Saskatoon with severe flu and heart-related issues.
Please Wish him well.
Thank You for posting this item.
Hello all!
I've been given his approval to pass this on, so I think all should know that frequent and valued poster Miningman (Vince) is in the Royal University Hospital of Saskatoon with severe flu and heart-related issues.
He's getting better but not going home any time soon.
I won't pass along the e-mail he's currently using unless I get the OK from him, he does need his rest, but all your thoughts and prayers will certainly be appreciated.
UPDATE
