Exactly! Get that man a beer. Just one though because it was easy.

It was easy because it's my favorite place to be at sundown.

For you guys on the fence on whether to get out or not.

Good luck,

StevenX

I've heard the same. Damn shame it wasn't busting out Friday and Saturday night where I was looking! lol.

You and me both... I wish I had more days off... My wife would kick my rear if I left again.

"BUSTING OUT"......don't this have to do with women????

Looking up at night and seeing every star in the sky and the milky way. I miss it.

The animals... My first day home I saw a wreck, cops arresting someone in a parking lot, another near accident, and traffic...

Every year it gets harder and harder to come home to the metromess I live in.

If you live in Paradise (aka Alterna Country) then you are lucky... more than you know.

Best Wishes,

StevenX

...at the Outback, but you snubbed me! Was it because of my goofy hat? I think you were on the phone.

I'm Not a Herpetologist, but I Play One on the Internet

Some folks made me mad while I was out. I also get tired of the 50 questions everyone asks each day. I need a t-shirt that says...

"YES, Alterna are moving... Go find one!"
or
"Did you really drive 1000 miles to sit in your hotel room because the wind isn't blowing from the southest?"
or
"Roy has wireless internet for the weather radar"
or
"Sure, let me explain to you the exact spot on the cut I saw an Alterna last night"

I'm not Anti-Social. I like to visit. We just get questions from folks I dont know.

BW,

StevenX

LMAO...... I hear that man.
As we speak I am using Roy's broadband to look at the net.

And yes, THEY ARE MOVING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
