Eisboch December 8th 08 06:16 PM

Getting old
 
Spent the last couple of days down at my son's Beachhouse on the ocean.

Awoke yesterday to snow, wind and a roaring ocean, so I got dressed, grabbed
a cup of coffee and wandered down to the beach, intending to experience and
enjoy nature and all that stuff.

Stood near the crashing waves for a couple of minutes, snow being driven
into my face, body starting to shiver uncontrollably in a futile attempt to
stay warm and suddenly the older, more mature part of my brain kicked in
with a message:

"What are you, friggin' nuts?"

Packed up the truck, went back to my nice, warm house in Duxbury and haven't
stepped outside since.

What a pansy.

returning to the warm, wood heated house ~~

It was nippy walking the dog at Point Pleasant Park this morning. That stiff
breeze off the ocean sure cools you down
I was glad I had dug out and wore my winter coat.

Went for a walk with SWMBO about noon time and a couple blocks from the
house, thought I needed a coat besides the sweatshirt. Dang Canadian cold
front coming our way. they are saying may be some snow on the hills
surrounding the Bay Area this weekend. Was cosy in the garage where I was
welding on the jet drives stators. One with a chunk out. Dang rocks. Now
to grind the welding to shape.

You guys cold? It's not even winter yet!
Don't worry, we'll ship more natural gas your way for a 'fair price'. ;-)
