Hello world. i am back...i had no internet for about 2 weeks....ugh....i moved down to sarasota and it took some time to get my line up and running. i have no cable still and just today i got the internet. almost like camping with a condo. i got a condo down in sarasota, like i mentioned. it is about 2 miles straight out to seista key. it will be nice down here. also out my back door is the pool for the complex. can ya dig it!!! my cats love it also, there is a little kitty window that they can go out and sit on the screen patio. they are out there most of the time. slowly getting things unpacked. you know that takes some time. i am also working most days, but will have some time this weekend to put stuff away. going up north next weekend to do some skiing before the season ends. i am waiting to do some snowboarding. i hope i don't break anything. lol.

also recently started to play softball. i feel my age at night. i almost quit, but was encouraged by my sis to not at this early point. so i will try to show up for practice on sunday at 9am. my legs were like lead weight last nite... i could not move in the outfield. first game in about 8 years. and i even struck out, not once, but twice my first game. needless to say my florida debut of softball was not that great. i went 0-4 at the plate. coach said it was the pitcher...he was real good. i went 2-3 the next game. with those being both doubles. i have never struck out before, ever....now i can't say that....lol.

as you can image down here i am close to hooters, my fav. also there is a lot more action down here in sarasota, every one is not so close to the grave down here. it is nice and refreshing. and i can not wait to go to the beach every weekend.

working some on saturdays. we got off to a slow start this season. due to the warm weather up north.

well i am off of here for now. wanted to say hello. feeling fine and see doc next month in march. much peace and love to all who may read this....capt. vernon.
