Hey, ya'all...
It's Summertime, and all the trees and leaves are green, and the Red Birds sing, and you don't want my love....."
Ho Kay
I have not added anything here since the Winter. Mary and I have been taking the long weekends off for travel, she got out of Middle School end of May, then had some elective surgery to tone the bod, then we have been making trips on days off.
First dive trip to Beaver Lake AR was a month ago, took the new scooter and camera with us (pics and videos on my site) had a lot of fun, then last week we had 4 days off, so we rode her Harley to Chicago bang bang.. and that was a hoot.
This weekend we plan to go to New Mexico and check out the Scuba Diving there starting with Navajo Lake in the NW part near Aztec. I want to go to the Blue Hole at Santa Rosa but Mare is a wuss at the 61 degrees water temp there, but she would be ok if'n she wears her 5 mil suit. No bikini's there, I tell you, or she freeze her buns right off, and a dry suit is only $1300.00. Ouch. Arkensas and Bull Shoals area is raining, Port Aransas and Destin Florida it is raining, but New Mex it is dry....
My band, Infusion, play about 2 times a month at Mort's Cigar and Martini Bar in Wichita, not enough for me, but then, we have been busy with that that we have not played in the Municipal band here but 1 time on the opening concert in the park.
Planning a trip to ride AROUND Lake Superior early August with my bro in law Ramiro in Minneapolis MN on our Harley's, need to let sis Mary ready this as we want to come up on ....... oops, just looked at the calendar, wont have time to do that as Mary had to start school on August 9th. That sucks. And I work then, so I can be off to play at Mort's the 10th and 11th..... We used to start school on the day after labor day. Now, the teachers need 7 to 9 days to get ready in August. Well, Mary doesn't, she can do it in 2 days, but the others are slow and need a lot of extra time arranging desks and chairs and dusting off books.
I need to go now, outside and have a smoke. I am taking Chantix, to quit smoking, but have 3 packs left to use up, so I will be clean by next week....
Later

It's Christmas Day
Hi all. No one reads this but me and poss the girlfriend.....
It is Christmas day 2006. I sit here at work making 2.5 times normal hourly wage. 10 bucks an hour. Or so. Wow. Law Enforcement. Don't do it for the money cause there isn't any.
26 years ago when I got in this line of work I was an Oilfield Engineer. I appled to the hays, kansas PD and was hired. Chief Younger told me that my continued employment with the Hays PD was contingent upon me completing and passing all of the psycological exams. I was making more money than he was then. He thought I was crazy. I told him I could be making $1,000,000.00 a year in the Oilfield and I would still be underpaid. Hated it, the long days and hours stuck out in nowhere boonies getting drilling rigs unstuck, bacteria controlled, or the PH up.
Well, I passed the MMPI and the tests. I was indeed sane and can prove it. Don't tell the ex's or the girlfriend, they still think I am a nut. LOL
So grilfriend and her daughter went to Mom's in Moran and I get off in an hour, so I will have the TV to meself for a time. Woo. There is a new kitty in the house to play with Mufasa, the stupid kittie. It is 8 months old but about 1/3 the size of Mufasa or a 13 pound cat. My friend at work said i could have one of her Maine Coon cats, so I might have to do that instead of the kitten. It is still a bit wild fresh off the farm.
So we will see. Until I get another minute between 9-1-1 calls; later!

Winter is here ...
December will be here in 1 day.
Winter Storm Watch posted for my area for today and tomorrow, freezing rain, thunderstorms, ice, snow. Great stuff. Glad I am on my days off. Plan to play at the Old Marple Thursday night with the band, might be hectic getting around to go if the roads ice up.
Boring here at work. They are all running 28's all night long. Like they have a reason to know who owns this or that. Very strange how they do things in this County. A lot different than I was used to in Western Kansas, where life is much more simple, and the Cops don't have "quota's". Unethical, I say. But what do i know. I am just a Conservative Republican type, not Liberal like some here seem to be.
Updated my Photobucket pics and uploaded several more. Now have 491 pics there.
All for now, keep checking back ....
