Looks like my last effort was posted so I will add a little more information. Lynn and I went camping for 4 days last weekend. Were up just outside of Spokane. It rained a lot but we had a good time. We relaxed, went window shopping, had dinner with some from friends, had a breakfast with some friends, and relaxed. This weekend we stayed home. Saturday I got up at 5:00am and smoked turkeys for the Lions. Over a 3 day period we smoked about 450 birds. We run crews 24 hour a day. This year the price of a smoked turkey will be $30.00. Saturday we went to a fund raiser dinner in Dayton. Today we just stayed home. My back has been giving me a bad time. I have done nothing today but lay on the couch and relaxed. Oh I also layed on a heating pad. Back actually feels better that it has in a couple of weeks. Mmmmm, maybe there is something to this idea of taking care of your self?

We haven't winterized our trailer. Hopefully with will get in one more trip this winter. Our calendar is filling up but if the weather hold we may still find a weekend to go.

Lynn has been having a few problems and is going in for test on Thursday. We are both praying that the cancer has not come back. I think the anxiety has sapped both of our energy. She is being brave, by the stress is always hanging on there in the background. Prayers would be appreciated. - Paul
