I flew back to SoCal mid-June for a family visit, so much needed work ($) and to escape the heat of summer in Mexico. Father's Day was great!!...It also gave my ribs a chance to heal a bit more, although they still remind me from time to time, what happened.
While back in Southern California, I took time to do a road trip and visit Alex and Kaitlyn in Reno, Nv.

Father's Day 2011...Missing from poto is #1 Son Mark |
They had just bought a new house and are expecting my first grandchild (a boy) in December. After spending a week with them I drove north to Portland to see some friends I had not seen in a good while. I drove to Portland Ore. and saw Ron and Toni Hungate, Steve and Martha Mussio. I had last laid eyes on all of them in 1980. Steve and I had played in a band back in the late 1960's with my cousin Raleigh and both Ron and Steve had worked for me when I was in the trash business. What a trip to get the hang out with them for a while. Also living in Portland was my x business partner and good friend Tom Morton. Tom had helped me deliver my boat from SoCal to Puerto Vallarta late last year.

Most of the rest of the summer I spent working and staying at Ronelle's and my sister's house. I worked some, layed around a lot and entertained Ronelle's friends with my shaving cream routine (Don' ask!)
October 1st rolled around and Mexico began calling. I decided to drive my car back down to Mazatlan.......But that a whole other story, LOL........Stay tuned.............
