Debbie and I met Joshua{XP} today for lunch.  We picked him up on Campus.  Smart young man, with a flair for drumming.  Thanks for meeting us Joshua, and good luck with your college education.

Sitting outside the RV this morning at 4:40 AM, I awoke around 3 AM.  Third day in a row I’ve awakened at such an ungodly hour.  I’m sure there is a ton of over the counter drugs, hormones and other prescribed medicines I could acquire to help me get to sleep.  The one good thing that is coming from it is the fact it’s cool enough to sit outside the RV and listen to the crickets.  Along with the traffic from the Interstate I can hear makes for a nice time to be up and awake.  We looked at new trucks today and was totally shocked at the prices.  I would love to have a new one ton dual axel rig to pull this RV with, if we can swing the finances.  Our little trip down to San Antonio showed me that the old 1/2 ton HD GMC just wasn’t enough truck to efficiently do the job.  The only major set back to acquiring a new truck is getting financing.  We looked at Fords, Chevy and Dodges yesterday.  I sure like the one Dodge we looked at.  It was the most reasonable of all the models price wise.  Fords were just out of the question.  Even in bad economical times like these, they just were priced out of our price range by any means available.  It’s now 5 AM and I’m having my first cup of coffee.  I spent most of the day yesterday listening to the presentations at Gnomedex.  Congratulations to Chris Pirillo for putting it together.  Maybe next year I can attend, with a little luck.  It would be a hoot to me all the ops of WyldRyde who attend.  Over these many years I’ve been a part of that network, I’ve come to think of them as family.  One of the very things the presenters yesterday were speaking of.  How one grows community on line.  It seems I’ve found mine.
