That's me, Bill, with my dad on his 95th birthday, January 2, 2004

I left Straydog at noon today to attend my father's birthday party

     All the dogs were enjoying the nice weather at Straydog when I left, and I've checked in by phone a few times and everything's fine.

     My father's enjoying his birthday with my two brothers, their wives and all Dad's grandchildren, plus one of Dad's nephews, my cousin, Lee. By the time I get back home tonight, it'll be too late to do a regular update, so this is all there'll be tonight. (I'm doing this brief update from a quiet place at the gathering.)
