Great evening! Burgers with the neighbors.
« on: April 21, 2012, 01:41:16 AM »
Their daughter is  J. ROTC, and an incredibly polite, gracious young lady. She and kiddo are becoming fast friends. Burgers were excellent, topped with serrano peppers. A couple Blue Moons to wash it down, Friendly hosts, and I hope we can do it again soon. Been too long, out of "the world". Need to walk it awhile again, get a feel for it.  =D

Good neighbors are good.   
Ours have become like family. They are in the resturant industry and typically off like monday tues.  I'm actuall excited to have tues/wed off as it'll coincide with their schedule.

One of neighbors is family, when they moved we found out that our grandfathers were/are first cousins. In typical family fashion we knock back some beers every now and then.

His wife got me tore up drunk at her birthday party last month. 
My excuse was when the birthday girl wants to do shots, you don't say no!

Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin

There are five things, above all else, that make life worth living: a good relationship with God, a good woman, good health, good friends, and a good cigar.

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier.  One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

Bacon is the candy bar of meats!

Only the dead have seen the end of war!

Some lines I cannot cross.  They are pretty much family.

Those peppers lit my esophagus up like Cape Canaveral. So damned good, though.

I was wary of the neighbors at first. Seems at this point unfounded.
