The U.S. Navy ship New York is seen before the start of christening ceremonies in Avondale, LA, Saturday, March 1st, 2008. Approximately 7.5 tons of steel recovered from the World Trade Center are cast in the bow stem of the ship. The bow stem is the foremost section of the ships hull on the water line.
Hi Tammy - sounds like a busy week with some good and some bad. I think Ashley got the best of it and I hope that perhaps now they can get Dave back on track. I am one example of better living through modern chemistry so I guess now Dave can be too :-] We will be hoping the best for Andy and YES! The unexpected beautiful day was nice!
Noah climbs on an airplane today, destination sunny Hawaii. He is going there for 10 days with his fellow karate instructors. Hopefully he has packed enough sunblock to keep from getting fried. We have been pumping him full of last minute travel warnings, instructions, and suggestions. I expect he will be delighted just to get away from his crazy parents who worry too much!

Bon voyage Noah! That must mean its time to say:
I wouldnt want the plane ride, but Id take Hawaii right now! I still saw 3.5 of snow for today and tomorrow. I hope it melts as fast as it hits! Off to the shower and a better week!

Noah just went out the door to go to the airport. His plane is supposed to leave Peoria just after 9 this morning.

LOL. . .I dont think Mike and I have been apart for more than a couple of days in 37 years! I hope that Noah has a safe and wonderful trip.

Noah is in the air over the Pacific now after a cancelled flight out of Peoria, a hasty re-schedule of an Allegiant flight, etc. It doesnt seem possible to fly anywhere without some problem somewhere.
I think a week is about all that Tracey and I have been apart at a time. I went to a few union trips for that long without her and she takes the boys down to the farm about a once or twice a year without me.
