You can do the Jive... Think I'll do a dive into a nap... Just finished moving 1/2 the yard and weeding. Had sooo much rain that the Trolls and I couldn't keep up... Dragon would ash the whole garden if he decided to hepl sooo waited until he's napping... Silly Dragon! But he means well.

Gee whizz Jack----what an example you are for us all to be writing like you do at 80----just amazing. However, you do tell fibs Jack, If you live in Canada you're already cold, frozen even, but you're the best popsickle writer I've ever met.....kind regards----John
