Thanks, Will. Wonderful shots. Could I have seen the B&W in the old days before the exile? I remember the milk train pausing in the snowy woods.

Tramp, that is a bummer on the cash only deal. You would think that in 1st class you could just run a tab and slip them the plastic. Always wondered about that back in my flying days why I had to pay cash for a beer or one of those little bottles. Mitch

As I live and breath, Willy's back. It's damn good to hear from you. I was using the chop saw today to make pilings from dowels and thinking of you. That's one hell of a knob you got on the head.

Tramp and D have reported in. I am thankful that no hobos ended up in the hospital or jail. But, it was a close call.

Now, Jon, I have a different take on the last evening. You probably don't remember. Mitch was sleeping like a baby on the pool table where we laid him out. You were muttering at the bar about the &^#%$*# PS1 engine, flew into a rage and pitched the foker out throught the front window. It could have ended there, except the damn thing brained Cinderdick right at the hairline, knocked him unconscious, and sent his wig across the street. Seems Cinderdick was peering throught the window trying to get a peek at D and never saw it coming. Cinderdick woke yelping for his fellow bulls and Dennis went out and punched his lights out, again. We finally left him in the dumpster behind the homeless shelter. Gomer seemed to take it all in stride, like he's seen it all before. Just happened to have a piece of plywood exactly the size of the window, so we nailed it up and that was that. I think you might have left a tab down there, John.

All I got to say is this: if you guys can't drink more quietly, I'm finding another bar. All this breaking glass is distracting when a man is trying to achieve certain heights of hop level.

Brass knuckles and a roll of dimes are suitable for the application at hand.

Gomer roused me off the pool table about nine. Mentioned something about thunder during the night. Probably just me snoring. I know I had a sore throat when I got up. Felt like I'd been run over by a truck. Wish you guys would have stuck around, you could have carried me down and thrown me in the river. By the way, that pool table mattress is a bit firmer than the oak floor in that old boxcar. Mitch
