I've been well, Wolfie, and thanks for asking. Wife, kids and grand kids are
all healthy and doing great. Still managing to swing a fly or two on occasion,
though nowhere near enuff. I gotta work on that.

Other than training up your powers of resurrection (always an asset, imo) how
are things up your end of the world? Hope you and yours are fine and dandy!

Cheers!

On the personal front, things are splendiferous here. I get to spend pretty much all day every day (literally 24/7/365 if I wish) playing with every tool and material I have ever coveted and a whole lot more that I never even dreamed of. And being a part time seasonal employee at my current job, I have pretty much 24/7 available to me.

I've been spending a lot of time blacksmithing and doing various woodworking projects. Recently finished building an old fashioned potter's kickwheel......even carved the stone. Will be making pots, bowls, cups, etc. as soon as I can pin down my erstwhile teacher. Am also relearing welding.....and a million other things. If I was punching a clock it would show that I am putting in 10 to 12 hours a day, 7 days a week. But I take lots of long breaks.

Fire. I get to play with LOTS of fire.

Whatta hoot!

On the statewide, national, an international fronts things appear to be about as ****ed up as ever. Not much I can do about any of that except once again take up the cudgel here in good old roff.

I'm ready for that.
