Walter Family Place It has been too long since I was here. So there is a bit of news I want to pass along. First, Pat has found a place to live while in Arkansas. His furnishings were to be delivered last Monday. Haven't heard if this happened, butno news is good news. Mom called me last night and said that her new Kitchen cabinets had been installed. She is now waiting for her new sink to come in so the counter tops can be installed. Dad has had an interesting story about a riding lawn mower. Heather is busy as ever with her kids. Sandy and I went down to see them a couple of weekends ago. Heather and Duke are doing fine while the grandkids are growing faster than I can keep up with. Sandy is trying to kill me with all of the projects going on around here. With her kitchen completed, the dinning room and large family room have been painted, the fence repaired and we started to restain the fence. The good news is it is raining so I can get some rest, the bad news is she expects to complete the fence before we go on vacation next week. Next week we are going to Denver to see Sandy's sisters and her Dad. At the end of June we are headed to Mississippi for a week. I get to sit in on some meeting with Germans about a Spanish test stand.(I don't quite see the connection, but it pays the same) While I "work: Sandy will be seeing the great town of Philadelphia, MS. As you may recall, this is the town where three civil rights activists were murdered in the 60's (the movie and book "Mississippi Burning" was based on this incident). There are 7 traffic lights, no major restaraunts, no movie theater, there is Indian Gambling, no shopping malls, and no night life in this town (it is the county seat). Other than bugs, can't tell if there is any thing grown in the area. (I was there about a year ago so I have some idea of the town). I still need to get the pictures from Venice posted, just need to slowdown and take the time to do this. If I survive the sudden interest in getting the house work done I will get some pictures posted. Moreto follow. Mike
